O Tell Me

O tell me that beau­ti­ful sto­ry

Of Je­sus

His work and His word;

O tell me that beau­ti­ful sto­ry

Much sweet­er than mor­tal e’er heard;

Sing me the song of re­demp­tion

Sing of that ci­ty of gold;

O sing till my soul to the mu­sic

Of sweet love’s re­deem­ing un­fold.

O talk to me

sing to me

teach me

I must hear it again and again;

Till my life is hid with the bless­èd

Till for me it is Yea and Amen.

O teach me the way of the Mas­ter

O show me the path­way to trace;

My feet in the vale have grown wea­ry

So far from the beau­ti­ful place;

Sing of the way that He walked in

As an ex­am­ple for me;

The les­sons He taught in Ju­dea

In Ca­na and sweet Ga­li­lee.
