O Tell Me More of Christ

O tell me more of Christ

my Sav­ior;

On this glad theme dwell o’er and o’er;

His bound­less grace

His sav­ing fa­vor

His pre­cious name

O tell me more!

O tell me more! So much I need

His pow­er to keep

His hand to lead;

O tell me more of Him I love

Until I see His face ab­ove.

O tell me more of love’s sweet sto­ry

If you would cheer and com­fort me;

How Je­sus wept

the King of glo­ry

Those ten­der tears of sym­pa­thy.

O tell me more! How waves of sor­row

Shall hear His voice say

Peace

be still;

How af­ter night

bright dawns the mor­row

To those who trust His bless­èd will.

O tell me more! And I re­peat­ing

The hap­py news

shall spread the joy;

Come

bless­èd Lord

Thy work com­plet­ing

Till songs of praise our lips em­ploy.
