NCC Family,
Welcome to our second virtual hymn-sing! As we did last week, the videos of the hymns and the lyrics are below, so you can follow along at home. Don’t be shy–sing out loud and strong from your home computer!
Psalm 71 : 23 – “My lips will shout for joy when I sing praise to you — I whom you have delivered.”
Keep sending me your requests and keep singing!
Blessings,
– Kim Ward
Tell Me the Stories of Jesus
LYRICS
1. Tell me the stories of Jesus I love to hear;
Things I would ask him to tell me, if he were here;
Scenes by the wayside, tales of the sea,
Stories of Jesus, tell them to me.
3. Into the city I’d follow the children’s band,
Waving a branch of the palm tree high in my hand;
One of his heralds, yes, I would sing
Loudest hosannas, “Jesus is King!”
Jesus Loves Me
LYRICS
1. Jesus loves me! This I know,
For the bible tells me so.
Little ones to him belong;
They are weak, but he is strong.
REFRAIN
Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me! The bible tells me so.
3. Jesus loves me still today,
Walking with me on my way,
Wanting as a friend to give
Light and love to all who live.
REFRAIN
When I Survey the Wondrous Cross
LYRICS
1. When I survey the wondrous cross
On which the Prince of glory died,
My richest gain I count but loss,
And pour contempt on all my pride.
3. See, from his head, his hands, his feet,
Sorrow and love flow mingled down!
Did e’er such love and sorrow meet,
Or thorns compose so rich a crown?
4. Were the whole realm of nature mine,
That were a present far too small;
Love so amazing, so divine,
Demands my soul, my life, my all.
Alas And Did My Savior Bleed
LYRICS
1. Alas! And did my Savior bleed?
And did my Sov’reign die?
Would he devote that sacred head
For sinners such as I?
REFRAIN
At the cross, at the cross where I first saw the light,
And the burden of my heart rolled away.
It was there by faith I received my sight,
And now I am happy all the day!
2. Was it for crimes that I have done
He groaned upon the tree?
Amazing pity! Grace unknown!
And love beyond degree!
REFRAIN
4. But drops of grief can ne’er repay
The debt of love I owe;
Here, Lord I give myself away
‘Tis all that I can do!
