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
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

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
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

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
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
