TELL IT AGAIN
Into a tent where a gypsy boy lay,
Dying alone at the close of the day,
News of salvation we carried, said he,
"Nobody ever has told it to me!"
Tell it again! Tell it again!
Salvation's story repeat o'er and o'er,
'Til none can say, of the children of men,
"Nobody ever has told me before."
"Did He so love me, a poor little boy?
Send unto me the good tidings of joy?
Need I not perish? My hand will He hold?
Nobody ever the story has told!"
Tell it again! Tell it again!
Salvation's story repeat o'er and o'er,
'Til none can say, of the children of men,
"Nobody ever has told me before."
Bending, we caught the last words of his breath,
Just as he entered the valley of death;
"God sent His Son! Whosoever?" said he;
"Then I am sure that He sent Him for me!"
Tell it again! Tell it again!
Salvation's story repeat o'er and o'er,
'Til none can say, of the children of men,
"Nobody ever has told me before."
Smiling, he said, as his last sigh he spent,
"I am so glad that for me He was sent!"
Whispered, while low sank the sun in the west,
"Lord, I believe; tell it now to the rest!"
Tell it again! Tell it again!
Salvation's story repeat o'er and o'er,
'Til none can say, of the children of men,
"Nobody ever has told me before."

GO YE INTO THE WORLD
AND PREACH THE GOSPEL
TO EVERY NATION
WE'VE A STORY TO TELL TO THE NATIONS
We've a story to tell to the nations,
that shall turn their hearts to the right,
a story of truth and mercy,
a story of peace and light,
a story of peace and light.
For the darkness shall turn to dawning,
and the dawning to noonday bright;
and Christ's great kingdom shall come on earth,
the kingdom of love and light.
We've a song to be sung to the nations,
that shall lift their hearts to the Lord,
a song that shall conquer evil
and shatter the spear and sword,
and shatter the spear and sword.
For the darkness shall turn to dawning,
and the dawning to noonday bright;
and Christ's great kingdom shall come on earth,
the kingdom of love and light.
We've a message to give to the nations,
that the Lord who reigneth above
hath sent us his Son to save us,
and show us that God is love,
and show us that God is love.
For the darkness shall turn to dawning,
and the dawning to noonday bright;
and Christ's great kingdom shall come on earth,
the kingdom of love and light.
We've a Savior to show to the nations,
who the path of sorrow hath trod,
that all of the world's great peoples
might come to the truth of God,
might come to the truth of God.
For the darkness shall turn to dawning,
and the dawning to noonday bright;
and Christ's great kingdom shall come on earth,
the kingdom of love and light.
