Lyrics

Tell the sweet story of Je­sus our king,
Over and over again;
Unto the world of His majesty sing,
Over and over again.

Refrain

Over and over again,
Over and over again,
Over and over again,
Tell the sweet story of Christ and His glo­ry,
Over and over again.

Tell of the grace that can save us from sin,
Over and over again;
Tell how He died our sal­va­tion to win,
Over and over again.

Refrain

Tell of His vic­to­ry over the grave,
Over and over again;
Tell of His wonderful power to save,
Over and over again.

Refrain

Tell of the joy that He gives, and of peace,
Over and over again;
Tell of His blessings that daily increase,
Over and over again.

Refrain

Tell of the home He has gone to prepare,
Over and over again;
Tell of the glo­ry we with Him may share,
Over and over again.
