We've a story to tell to the nations

.i Colin Sterne (1862 - 1926)



.1

We've a story to tell to the nations

that shall turn their 

hearts to the right;

a story of truth and sweetness,

a story of peace and light,

a story of peace and light.



.0

For the darkness 

shall turn to dawning,

and the dawning to 

noon-day bright,

and Christ's great kingdom 

shall come on earth,

the kingdom of love and light.



.2

We've a song to be sung 

to the nations,

that shall lift their hearts 

to the Lord;

a song that shall conquer evil,

and shatter the spear and sword,

and shatter the spear and sword.



.3

We've a story to give 

to the nations,

that the Lord who reigneth above,

hath sent us His Son to save us,

and show us that God is love,

and show us that God is love.



.4

We've a Saviour to 

show to the nations,

who the path of sorrow has trod,

that all of the world's great peoples,

might come to the truth of God,

might come to the truth of God



.0

For the darkness 

shall turn to dawning,

and the dawning to 

noon-day bright,

and Christ's great kingdom 

shall come on earth,

the kingdom of love and light.
