I will sing the wondrous story
Of the Christ who died for me;
How He left His home in glory,
For the cross on Calvary.
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 paths I often tread,
But the Saviour still is with me;
By His hand I’m safely led.
