Victory Songs ‎#9

9. Tell It To-day.

1 Dear is the story of wonderful love
Told of a Savior, who came from above,
Bore all our sins, and in sorrow and shame,
Suffered and died a lost world to reclaim.

Refrain:
Tell it today, it will brighten the way,
Tell it today, tell it today;
No other theme can such blessing bestow;
Joy will come to someone if you tell it today.

2 Hated, despised and rejected was He,
Whose word commanded the wind and the sea;
By whose compassion the hungry were fed,
Who healed the living, whose voice raised the dead. [Refrain]

3 Torn were His feet by the briars of scorn;
Pierced was His forehead by many a thorn;
Wounded for us were His hands and His side,
Broken the heart of the Lord crucified. [Refrain]

4 When, with the loved ones who’ve gone on before,
Ransomed we stand on that beautiful shore;
When in His beauty our Savior we see,
O what a glorious day that will be! [Refrain]
