Minnetonka Songs ‎#4

4. Tell Me More About Jesus

1 ’Tis known on earth and heaven too,
’Tis sweet to me because its true;
The old, old story is e’er new;
Tell me more about Jesus.

Chorus:
Tell me more about Jesus,
Tell me more about Jesus;
Him would I know who loved me so;
Tell me more about Jesus.

2 Earth’s fairest flow'rs will droop and die,
Dark clouds o’erspread yon azure sky,
Life’s dearest joys flit fleetest by;
Tell me more about Jesus. [Chorus]

3 When overwhelmed with unbelief,
When burdened with a blinding grief,
Come kindly then to my relief;
Tell me more about Jesus. [Chorus]

4 And when the glory land I see,
And take the place prepared for me,
Thro' endless years my song shall be,
Tell me more about Jesus. [Chorus]
