12921. The Best Story Of All

1 Of all the sweet stories
That ever were heard
In cottage or palace hall,
The story of Jesus,
As told in God’s Word,
Is the very best story of all.

Refrain:
’Tis the very best story of all;
’Tis the very best story of all;
He has suffered for you,
Is the promise true,
In the very best story of all.

2 He’s waiting to save
From the bondage of sin,
When you in temptation fall;
Oh, open your heart’s door,
And He will come in,
Says the very best story of all. [Refrain]

3 Oh, come to the Savior
For refuge tonight;
Make haste to obey His call;
Your soul shall be filled
With the heavenly light,
Of this very best story of all. [Refrain]
