Lyrics:
Chorus:
tell me the story of jesus!
tell me the story of jesus!
tell me the story of jesus!
tell me the story of jesus!
Tell me the story of the living word
who was in the beginning and created the world
tell me the story of the god who came to earth, earth
tell me the story of the god of love
who was filled with compassion, leaving heaven above
tell me the story of my lord's incarnate birth, birth
Repeat chorus
Tell me the story of the chosen one
who was tempted by satan, but was never overcome
living a life within the father's will and way, way
tell of the love of the obedient son
whose commitment and loyalty was second-to-none
dying a death declaring more than words can say
oh won't you,
Repeat chorus
Bridge:
tell me the reason that he cried.
tell me the reason that he died.
how, overcoming death, my lord, he is alive
Tell me the story of the living word
who was in the beginning and created the world
tell me the story of the god who came to earth!
tell me the story of the god of love
who was filled with compassion, leaving heaven above
tell me the story of my lord's incarnate birth, birth
Repeat chorus (with stepouts and fade)
