I Will Sing The Wondrous Story

Psalm 89:1 I will sing of the mercies of the Lord for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.

The mercies of the Lord and His faithfulness are a wondrous story. 


If you can’t sing it, tell how good the Lord has been to you. 


I Will Sing the Wondrous Story

____________________________


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.


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.


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.


Days of darkness still come o’er me, — Sorrow’s path I often tread, —  But His presence still is with me;    —   By His guiding hand I’m led.


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.


Francis H. Rowley  1886
