I Will Sing the Wondrous Story Songtext
von Bill & Gloria Gaither and their Homecoming Friends

I will sing the wondrous story
Of the Christ who died for me
How He left His home in glory
For the cross of Calvary

Yes, I′ll sing the wondrous story
Of the Christ who died for me
Singing with the saints in glory
Gathered by the crystal sea

I was lost, but Jesus found me
Found the sheep that was astray
Threw His loving arms around me
Drew me back into His way


Yes, I'll sing the wondrous story
Of the Christ who died for me
Singing with the saints in glory
Gathered by the crystal sea

He will keep me till the river
Rolls its waters at my feet
Then He′ll bear me safely over
Where the loved ones I shall meet

Yes, I'll sing the wondrous story
Of the Christ who died for me
Singing with the saints in glory
Gathered by the crystal sea

Yes, I'll sing the wondrous story
Of the Christ who died for me
Singing with the saints in glory
Gathered by the crystal sea
