Lyrics

If there is abun­dance of joy in your heart,
Made bright by the light from above,
If Je­sus has bid­den your sor­rows depart,
Keep tell­ing the sto­ry of love.

Refrain

Keep tell­ing, keep tell­ing,
Of Je­sus and Hea­ven above;
Keep tell­ing to oth­ers you meet on the way,
The won­der­ful story of love.

If you would win oth­ers for Je­sus to­day,
Bright stars for your crown up above,
Keep joy­ful­ly tell­ing to all on the way,
The beau­ti­ful sto­ry of love.

Refrain

Keep tell­ing of Je­sus, His cross and His grave,
Keep tell­ing of Hea­ven above;
Keep tell­ing—Christ ris­en and able to save,
The pow­er­ful sto­ry of love.
