1 I will sing the wondrous story
Of the Christ who died for me;
How He left His home in glory
For the cross of Calvary.
Refrain:
Yes, I’ll sing the wonderous story
Of the Christ who died for me;
Sing it with the saints in glory
Gathered by the crystal sea.
2 I was lost, but Jesus found me,
Found the sheep that went astray,
Threw His loving arms around me,
Drew me back into His way. [Refrain]
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. [Refrain]
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. [Refrain]
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. [Refrain]
