Church of God, awaken; heed the Lord�s command,
Tell the bless�d story of the cross.
Fields are white for harvesting on every hand,
Tell the bless�d story of the cross.

Refrain

Tell the bless�d story of the cross of Jesus,
Tell the bless�d story of the hallowed cross.
Until every nation learns of full salvation,
Tell the bless�d story of the cross.

Has not He commissioned you the news to bear?
Tell the bless�d story of the cross.
�Go ye into all the world,� and everywhere
Tell the bless�d story of the cross.

Refrain

Stand no longer idle while the moments fly.
Tell the bless�d story of the cross.
Multitudes in heathen darkness live and die.
Tell the bless�d story of the cross.

Refrain

Publish unto all the world redeeming grace.
Tell the bless�d story of the cross.
Until in the home of rest you find your place.
Tell the bless�d story of the cross.

Refrain
