1. I will sing the wondrous story of the Christ Who died for me,
how He left His home in glory for to die on Calvary.
?
Refrain:
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.
?
2. I was lost, but Jesus found me, found the sheep that went astray,
threw His loving arms around me, drew me back in to His way.
?
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.
?
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.
?
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.
