The Story Is True

Author: J. W. Sylvester Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Tell over, and over, and over to me Refrain First Line: Redemption for you Lyrics: 1 Tell over, and over, and over to me That story of old so preciously sweet; How Jesus the Savior who died on the tree Wrought out our salvation so full and complete. Chorus: Redemption for you, Redemption for me, Redemption for you, Redemption for me, The story is true, salvation is free. 2 Tell over, and over, and over again That story of love for Adam's lost race, Till all of the wandering children of men Shall hear of the Savior and feel His embrace. [Chorus] 3 Tell over, and over, and over to all That story so full of mercy and love; That Jesus who died to restore those who fall, Has mansions made ready in heaven above. [Chorus] 4 Tell over, and over, forever and aye, This story that saints and angels applaud, The cross of the Savior has opened the way From pathways of sin to the palace of God. [Chorus] Used With Tune: [Tell over, and over, and over to me]
