Contents of HymnSite.com's Baptist Hymnal materials
1. 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. (Refrain) 2. I was lost, but Jesus found me, Found the sheep that went astray, Threw His loving arms around me, Drew me back into His way. (Refrain) 3. I was bruised, but Jesus healed me; Faint was I from many a fall; Sight was gone, and fears possessed me, But He freed me from them all. (Refrain) 4. Days of darkness still come o'er me, Sorrow's paths I often tread, But the Savior still is with me; By His hand I'm safely led. (Refrain) 5. 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. (Refrain) Refrain: Yes, I'll sing the wondrous story Of the Christ who died for me, Sing it with the saints in glory, Gathered by the crystal sea.
