I Will Go and Tell My Savior

lyricist: Fanny Crosby, 1873
Composer: Howard Doane

I will go and tell my Sav­ior

How I long His child to be;

At the cross I’ll seek and find Him;

He’s wait­ing there for me.

I will car­ry all my sins to Je­sus

Tho’ I’ve no­thing but my heart to give Him;

I will go and lay my bur­den at the fount­ain;

I’ll go and be for­giv’n.

I will tell Him I have wan­dered

From the path that leads to Heav’n;

With a con­trite

brok­en spir­it

I’ll go and be for­giv’n.

If my heart is tru­ly hum­ble

He will not re­ject my pray­er;

On the cross He died for sin­ners

I know He saved me there.

I will tell Him all my sto­ry

With His mer­cy all my plea;

At the cross I’ll seek and find Him

He’s wait­ing there for me.
