We've A Story To Tell

Words and music: Ernest Nichol (1862-1926)

We've a story to tell to the nations
That will turn their heart to the right
A story of truth, a story of mercy
A story of peace and light, a story of peace and light

For the darkness shall turn to the dawning
And the dawning to the noonday bright
Christ's great kingdom shall come on earth
The kingdom of love and light
The kingdom of love and light

We've a song to sing to the nations
That will lift their heart to the Lord
A song that shall conquer all evil
And shatter the spear and the sword
And shatter the spear and the sword

We've a Saviour to show to the nations
Who the path of sorrow hath trod
That all of the world's great peoples
May come to the knowledge of God
May come to the knowledge of God

Christ's great kingdom shall come on earth
The kingdom of love and light
The kingdom of love and light
The kingdom of love, the kingdom of light
