Go and tell
Why the Savior came from glory
Go and tell;
In the lands of sin and night
They are waiting for the light
That will lead them to the right—
Go and tell, go and tell.
Refrain:
Go and tell, go and tell,
Tell to all the world the story;
Go and tell, go and tell,
Go and tell, go and tell;
Tell of Christ the King of glory—
Go and tell, go and tell.
2 In the loving name of Jesus
Go and tell
That sweet story of redemption
Go and tell;
There are many young and old
To be brought into the fold
Who have never yet been told—
Go and tell, go and tell. [Refrain]
3 There is One for sinners pleading,
Go and tell
He in love is interceding
Go and tell;
O the cross was crucified
For the world He bled and died
You can bring them to His side—
Go and tell, go and tell. [Refrain]
4 While the daylight hours are fleeting,
Go and tell
For the story bears repeating
Go and tell;
Shades of night are gath’ring fast
Daylight will not always last,
Life on earth will soon be past—
Go and tell, go and tell. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Some have never heard the story]
