57. I Never Can Tell or Repay It

1 O wonderful story which ne’er grows old,
The story of infinite love;
It brought the dear Saviour to earth for me,
From heaven’s bright courts above.

Refrain:
But I never can tell it, I never can tell it,
The height and the depth of His love;
But I’ll love Him and serve Him, confess Him and bless Him,
Till call’d to the mansions above.

2 The Saviour so sinless, so pure and true,
Came down among sinners to dwell;
Then gave His own life on the cruel cross,
No mortal such love can tell. [Refrain]

3 A witness for Jesus I mean to be,
And tell of His wonderful love;
Then some day when earth and its cares are o’er,
I’ll praise Him in heav’n above. [Refrain]
