O Tell Me More of Christ

Eliza E. Hewitt • English

Primary Scripture: 2 Peter 3:18

Verse 1

O tell me more of Christ, my Saviour, On this glad theme dwell o’er and o’er; His boundless grace, his saving favor, His precious name, O tell me more!

Chorus

O tell me more! So much I need His pow’r to keep, His hand to lead; O tell me more of him I love, Until I see his face above.

Verse 2

O tell me more of love’s sweet story, If you would cheer and comfort me; How Jesus wept, the King of glory, Those tender tears of sympathy.

Chorus

O tell me more! So much I need His pow’r to keep, His hand to lead; O tell me more of him I love, Until I see his face above.

Verse 3

O tell me more! How waves of sorrow Shall hear his voice say, “Peace, be still;” How after night, bright dawns the morrow, To those who trust his blessed will.

Chorus

O tell me more! So much I need His pow’r to keep, His hand to lead; O tell me more of him I love, Until I see his face above.

Verse 4

O tell me more! And I, repeating The happy news, shall spread the joy; Come, blessed Lord, thy work completing, Till songs of praise our lips employ.

Chorus

O tell me more! So much I need His pow’r to keep, His hand to lead; O tell me more of him I love, Until I see his face above.
