Author: Mrs. Frank A. Breck Hymnal: United Praise #45 (1908) First Line: I tell the old story of Jesus Lyrics: 1 I tell the old story of Jesus
Whenever—wherever I go;
He offers so great a salvation
That I want everybody to know.
Refrain:
I want everybody to know
Of him who such mercy can show;
It’s ever my aim his great love to proclaim,
For I want everybody to know.
2 So great is his loving compassion
He never turns sinners away
That comes with a heart of repentance,
And that unto him honestly pray. [Refrain]
3 So many know nothing of Jesus,
And naught of the mansions above,
Because no one never has told them
Of this wonderful story of love. [Refrain]
4 Come, help me to spread the good tidings
Of Christ to earth’s uttermost bound,
Until every kingdom and nation
Shall this merciful Savior have found. [Refrain] Tune Title: [I tell the old story of Jesus]
