Tell me a¤gain of God’s won¤der¤ful love:
How Je¤sus left those fair man¤sions a¤bove,
Suf¤fered and died for my sins on the tree;
He made a¤tone¤ment for you and for me.

Chorus:
Tell how He lived; tell how He died,
Sore¤ly af¤flict¤ed and nailed to the tree,
Wound¤ed and bruised for the sins of the world:
Love so a¤bound¤ing– O tell it to me!

Tell me a¤gain how He wept for their sin,
O¤pened life’s gate that they all might come in;
But they de¤spised Him and hard¤ened their heart,
Cast out their Sav¤iour and bid Him de¤part.

Tell me a¤gain how in sor¤row He prayed;
All our trans¤gres¤sions on Je¤sus were laid.
None was found wor¤thy for sin to a¤tone:
Death’s bit¤ter cup He must drink all a¤lone.

Tell me a¤gain how the mul¤ti¤tude scorns
Christ their re¤deem¤er and crown Him with thorns;
Mock’d Him as king while they smote Him a¤gain;
Meek¤ly He suf¤fered and did not com¤plain.

Tell how ex¤ceed¤ing¤ly bit¤ter His cry,
Nailed to the cross where they left Him to die;
Grieved and for¤sak¤en, God spared not His Son:
Love’s might¤y work of re¤demp¤tion is done.
