That Jesus died for me as well as you;
Tell me the old, old story.

Tell me the old, old story,
My hope is Christ, the Lamb for sinners slain!
Tell me the old, old story. [Chorus]

'Twill be the old, old story,
Where angels strive their choicest strains to sing.

Tell out the old, old story,
There's love, joy peace, and pardon free to all,
Found in the old, old story. [Chorus]
