Representative Text

1 Go and tell Jesus, weary, sin-sick soul!
He’ll ease thee of thy burden, make thee whole;
Look up to Him, He only can forgive,
Believe on Him, and thou shalt surely live.

Refrain:
Go and tell Jesus, He only can forgive,
Go and tell Jesus, O turn to Him and live.
Go and tell Jesus,
Go and tell Jesus,
Go and tell Jesus, He only can forgive.

2 Go and tell Jesus, when your sins arise,
Like mountains of dark guilt before your eyes;
His blood was shed, His precious life He gave,
That mercy, peace, and pardon you might have. [Refrain]

3 Go and tell Jesus, He’ll dispel thy fears,
Will calm thy painful doubts and dry thy tears;
He’ll take thee in His arms, and on His breast,
Thou may’st be happy, and forever blest. [Refrain]
