I'm Telling The Story

Representative Text

1 To sinners in darkness I'm telling the story,
How God in His mercy has given His Son, has given His Son;
He's ready and willing and eager to save you.
Repent and obey Him, the vict'ry is won, the vict'ry is won.

Refrain:
I'm telling the story, the wonderful story,
how Jesus came down, lost sinners to gain;
I'm telling with gladness the blessed old story,
I tell it with joy, again and again.

2 To those who are straying I'm telling the story,
How Satan is trying to gild and allure, to gild and allure;
But heed not His tempting, resist all your sinning.
Return to the Savior, the good and the pure, the good and the pure. [Refrain]

3 To those who don't know Him I'm telling the story,
of love and atonement, of mercy and grace, of mercy and grace;
By bowing before Him, repenting thy sinning.
In heaven you'll meet Him and look on His face, and look on His face. [Refraom]
