Representative Text

1 Tell the glad story how Jesus can save,
Save from all evil and woe,
And from the shadows of sin and the grave,
Tell it wherever you go.

Chorus:
O tell the glad tidings,
Tell of this great salvation,
Tell how the Savior
For us His life freely gave,
Then sing it with gladness,
Shout it and sing it forever,
How the Redeemer is mighty to save.

2 Tell the glad story how Jesus will save,
Save evermore from thy sin;
Yes, He will give you the pardon you crave,
If you will bid Him come in. [Chorus]

3 Tell the glad story how Jesus has sav’d,
Sav’d thro’ His infinite grace;
Taken thy soul long by evil enslaved
Into His loving embrace. [Chorus]
