Go Tell the Joyful Tidings

Verse 1

Tell out the joyful tidings That once the Saviour told; Thro' village, town and city, His precious truth unfold; Tell out the joyful tidings, And publish far and wide The blessed, blessed story, That Christ for sinners died.

Verse 2

Tell out the joyful tidings, That all His grace may share, Who, trusting only Jesus, Will come by faith and prayer; Lift up the trembling mourner, So weak and crush'd within, And say, “The blood of Jesus Will cleanse from ev'ry sin.”

Verse 3

Tell out the joyful tiding, That all who now believe, The gift of life eternal From Jesus shall receive; A life beyond the shadows That dim these fading skies, Where pleasure blooms immortal And friendship never dies.
