Hymn: | We Have A Gospel To Proclaim |
---|---|
Tune: | Fulda |
Words: | Edward J Burns (b 1938) |
Verse 1
We have a gospel to proclaim
Good news for men in all the earth;
The gospel of a Saviour’s name:
We sing His glory, tell His worth.
Verse 2
Tell of His birth at Bethlehem,
Not in a royal house or hall
But in a stable dark and dim:
The Word made flesh, a light for all.
Verse 3
Tell of His death at Calvary,
Hated by those He came to save;
In lonely suffering on the cross
For all He loved, His life He gave.
Verse 4
Tell of that glorious Easter morn:
Empty the tomb, for He was free.
He broke the power of death and hell That we might share His victory.
Verse 5
Tell of His reign at God’s right hand,
By all creation glorified;
He sends His Spirit on His Church
To live for Him, the Lamb who died.
Verse 6
Now we rejoice to name Him King:
Jesus is Lord of all the earth.
This gospel message we proclaim:
We sing His glory, tell His worth.
