Chorus

Yes, I’ll sing the wondrous story Of the Christ who died for me Sing it with the saints in glory, Gathered by the crystal sea.

Verse 1

I WILL sing the wondrous story Of the Christ who died for me; How He left His home in glory, For the cross on Calvary.

Verse 2

I was lost; but Jesus found me Found the sheep that went astray; Raised me up and gently led me Back into the narrow way.

Verse 3

I was bruised; but Jesus healed me: Faint was I from many a fall; Sight was gone, and fears possessed me: But He freed me from them all.

Verse 4

Days of darkness still come o’er me; Sorrow’s paths I often tread: But the savior still is with me, By His hand I’m safely led.

Verse 5

He will keep me till the river Rolls its waters at my feet; Then He’ll bear me safely over, Where the loved ones I shall meet.

Verse 6

Yea, living, dying, let me bring My strength, my solace from this Spring; That He Who lives to be my King Once died to be my Savior!
