I Will Sing the Wondrous Story | Acapella! | by Francis H. Rowley
Hi! This hymn is the hope that all Christians have. That Christ left his home in heaven, to come to earth and die for the sins of the world. We were lost in our sins, but we were saved by grace! No matter how bad our lives were or what we had done: it was all forgiven, for all it takes is to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you can be saved. Even after salvation, life is not perfect, but Jesus helps us along the way and prepares us for that final day when He brings us joyously to heaven. What a day that will be!
I Will Sing the Wondrous Story was written by Francis H. Rowley in 1886. Here are the lyrics:
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:
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. (refrain)
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)
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)
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)
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)

Hi friend and sister! Thanks so much for tuning in! We like to change things up a bit for variety: sometimes with one guitar, sometimes with two guitars. Other times, one or two of us are singing, or a group of us. For Christmas, we may even have one of us play the piano. 😃May God bless you!❣
