Tell Me the Story of Jesus (Fawcett)

Composer: Nellie Fawcett, 1893

Tell me the sto­ry of Je­sus

Who left His throne on high

Who came to earth to suf­fer

Upon the cross to die.

Tell me the sto­ry of Je­sus

The sto­ry of God’s on­ly Son

Who gave His life to re­deem us;

Behold

then

the cru­ci­fied One!

Tell me the sto­ry of Je­sus

Tell me the sto­ry of Je­sus

Wonderful

won­der­ful sto­ry

Of Je­sus

the cru­ci­fied One.

Tell me the sto­ry of Je­sus

The spot­less Son of God

Who car­ried our griefs and sor­rows;

The wine press of wrath He trod.

Tell me the sto­ry of Je­sus

Of how He died for me.

The sin­less One for the guil­ty

He died to set me free.

Tell me the sto­ry of Je­sus

Who went about do­ing good

Who healed the sick and suff­er­ing

And led the peo­ple to God.

Tell me the sto­ry of Je­sus

Of the re­sur­rect­ion morn

When life and im­mor­tal­ity

To us thro’ Him was born.

Tell me the sto­ry of Je­sus

Redeemer

Sav­ior

King!

O what a glo­ri­ous Sav­ior!

His prais­es I will sing.

He ever lives in glo­ry

When He hath gone to pre­pare

A place for us in the man­sions

Many man­sions of Heav­en so fair.
