I Will Sing the Wondrous Story
D
I will sing the wondrous story
A7 D
Of the Christ Who died for me.
How He left His home in glory
A7 D
For the cross of Calvary.
Chorus:
D
Yes, I’ll sing the wondrous story
A7 D
Of the Christ Who died for me,
Sing it with the saints in glory,
A7 D
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.
Chorus
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.
Chorus
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.
Chorus
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.
