Lyrics

If you have heard that our God is love,
Go tell it, go tell it!
That He is reign­ing in Hea­ven above,
Go tell of His love to­day.

Refrain

Tell of a Sav­ior so kind and true,
Tell of His love and His mer­cy, too,
Tell of the good He would have us do,
Go tell of His love to­day.

If you can sing the dear Sav­ior’s praise,
Go sing it, go sing it!
Unto Him glad­ly your voic­es now raise,
Go sing of His love to­day.

Refrain

If you can turn oth­er hearts to God,
Go do it, go do it!
Bid them to fol­low where Je­sus has trod,
Go do what you can to­day.
