I will sing the wondrous story Of the Christ who died for me How he left the realms of glory For the cross of 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 Raised me up and gently led me Back into the narrow way 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 Faint was I and fear possessed me Bruised was I from many a fall Hope was gone and shame distressed me But his love has pardoned all 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 Days of darkness still may meet me Sorrow's path I oft may tread But his presence still is with me By his guiding hand I'm led 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 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
