Tell of his amazing pow-er
Behold his authority
Tell of his love ev’ry ho-ur
Proclaim His grace and glory
He healed the sick, made the blind see
Caused all the demons to flee
He stilled the storm, fed the hungry
He touched and cleansed even me
Tell me the story of Jesus,
Write on my heart every word.
Tell me the story most precious,
Sweetest that ever was heard.
(To the tune of “Tell Me the Story Of Jesus” – Chorus by Fanny Crosby)
Consider blind Bartimaeus
As he cries out for mercy
Watch him as he comes to Jesus
And now the blind man can see
In your struggle, sin, and sorrow
With faith to Jesus cry out
Draw near to Him now and follow
With joyful hope – sing and shout
Tell me the story of Jesus
Write on my heart ev’ry word
Tell me the story most precious
That I might live what I’ve heard
(Some words in the chorus by Fanny Crosby,
to the tune of “Tell Me the Story of Jesus”)
Tell of the boy with the demon
Dominate, destroy, despair
The father grieving for his son
Can Jesus help, does He care?
Hear Jesus call him to believe
There’s nothing He cannot do
So now in your life just believe
Trust Him down on your knees too
Tell me the story of Jesus
Write on my heart ev’ry word
Tell me the story most precious
That I might live what I’ve heard
(Some words in chorus by Fanny Crosby,
to the tune of “Tell Me the Story of Jesus”)
Behold the glory of Jesus
Shining in radiant white
Ponder His role now to save us
Redeem us from endless night
Consider His identity
The Father’s Beloved Son
Be still with all humility
Listen to Jesus the Son
Tell me the story of Jesus
Write on my heart ev’ry word
Tell me the story most precious
That I might live what I’ve heard
(Some words by Fanny Crosby, to the tune of “Tell Me the Story of Jesus”)
See Jesus walking on water
Striding through waves of the sea
Hear the men cry out in terror
Thinking a ghost they now see
Fear not for Jesus is with you
Behold this theophany
Trust as the wind blows against you
Walk through life down on your knees
Tell me the story of Jesus
Write on my heart ev’ry word
Tell me the story most precious
That I might live what I’ve heard
(Some words by Fanny Crosby, to the tune of “Tell Me the Story of Jesus”)
Tell me of His great compassion
Offering His truth and rest
See His amazing provision
Twelve baskets of food were left
So in your need look to Jesus
He will provide for you too
Don’t lose hope – He’s not done with us
Behold He loves me and you
Tell me the story of Jesus
Write on my heart ev’ry word
Tell me the story most precious
That I might live what I’ve heard
(Some words by Fanny Crosby, to the tune of “Tell Me the Story of Jesus”)
See Jesus going with Jairus
To heal his dying daughter
See a sick woman touch Jesus
And receive His healing power
The daughter dies but do not fear
Jesus restores her to life
Trust Him today in your own tears
Soon we’ll have eternal life
Tell me the story of Jesus
Write on my heart ev’ry word
Tell me the story most precious
That I might live what I’ve heard
(Some words by Fanny Crosby, to the tune of “Tell Me the Story of Jesus”)
Tell of the man with the Legion
Bound by a strong enemy
Oppressed and ruined by demons
Until our Lord set him free
Behold our Lord’s greater pow-er
Salvation so rich and free
Desire and trust Him each ho-ur
Proclaim His grace and mercy
Tell me the story of Jesus
Write on my heart ev’ry word
Tell me the story most precious
That I might live what I’ve heard
(Some words by Fanny Crosby, to the tune of “Tell Me the Story of Jesus”)
See Jesus on the storm-tossed sea
As the boat begins to fill
Hear Jesus – sleeping and weary
Wake up and say – “Peace, be still”
The wind and waves quickly obey
Behold His amazing power
So in your storms trust Him today
He’ll be with you ev’ry hour
Tell me the story of Jesus
Write on my heart ev’ry word
Tell me the story most precious
That I might live what I’ve heard
(Some words by Fanny Crosby, to the tune of “Tell Me the Story of Jesus”)
See Jesus teaching by the sea
Calling Levi to follow
See Levi throwing a party
So Jesus his friends will know
See Jesus with sinners eating
And hear the proud Pharisees
Hear Jesus to sinners calling
Sinners just like you and me
Tell me the story of Jesus
Write on my heart ev’ry word
Tell me the story most precious
That I might live what I’ve heard
(Some words by Fanny Crosby, to the tune of “Tell Me the Story of Jesus”)
