Tune: | SPREAD THE GOOD NEWS |
Composer: | Samuel W. Beazley, 1873-1944 |
1 Jesus came from glory to die for all,
Spread the news, glad good news;
Bid the sin-bound souls hear redemption's call,
Spread the news, glad good news.
Refrain:
Spread the good news,
Spread the good news
To the weary and the sad;
Spread the good news,
Spread the good news,
It will make the whole world glad.
2 Let the soul that heareth bid others come,
Spread the news, glad good news;
Speak in word and deed of the heav'nly home,
Spread the news, glad good news. [Refrain]
3 "Whosoever will let him come today,
Spread the news, glad good news;
Fill the earth with joy, drive the gloom away,
Spread the news, glad good news. [Refrain]
