Tell Me The Story Of Jesus Tab par Fanny J. Crosby

D
Tell me the story of Jesus, 
A            A7         D
write on my heart every word;
D    D7     G           D
Tell me the story most precious, 
A             A7       D
Sweetest that ever was heard.
G                          D
Tell of the angels in cho-rus
A            A7           D
Sang as they welcomed His birth,
G                         D
"Glory to God in the high-est!
A                           A-A7 
Peace and good ti-dings to earth."

Chorus:
D
Tell me the story of Jesus, 
A            A7         D
write on my heart every word;
D    D7     G           D
Tell me the story most precious, 
A             A7       D
Sweetest that ever was heard.

Verse 2:
D
Fasting alone in the dessert
A            A7            D
Tell of the days that are past
D    D7     G           D
How for our sins He was tempted,
A             A7       D
Yet was tri-umphant at last.
G                          D
Tell of the years of His labor,
A            A7       D
Tell of the sorrow he bore
G                       D
He was despised and af-flicted
A                      A-A7 
Homeless, rejected and poor.

Chorus:
D
Tell me the story of Jesus, 
A            A7         D
write on my heart every word;
D    D7     G           D
Tell me the story most precious, 
A             A7       D
Sweetest that ever was heard.

Verse 3:
D
Tell of the cross where they nailed Him,
A            A7         D
Writhing in anguish and pain
D    D7     G                D
Tell of the grave where they laid Him;
A            A7       D
Tell how He liveth a-gain.
G                      D
Love in that story so tender
A            A7     D
Clearer than ever I see:
G                            D
Stay, let me weep while you whisper
A                       A-A7 
Love paid the ransom for me.

Chorus:
D
Tell me the story of Jesus, 
A            A7         D
write on my heart every word;
D    D7     G           D
Tell me the story most precious, 
A             A7       D
Sweetest that ever was heard.
