Go Tell the People Lyrics by Cumberland Quartet

New Ship Sailing

0

The prophets were quiet all over the earth
For years God was silent, He spoke not a word
But then a bright star over Bethlehem's town
Proclaimed to the world that God had come down
Go tell the people, Jesus is living
Here in a manger, oh, yes, He's alive
Go tell the people, our prayers are answered
Born in the hope of etеrnal life
The child grew in favor of both God and man
Until it was timе for His work to begin
Then He stretched forth His hand
And a blind man could see
It was clear that this Jesus was true deity
Go tell the people, Jesus is able
Able to heal by the touch of His hand
Go tell the people, Jesus is able
Demons will flee when they hear His command
The mob filled the city, this Jesus to see
They worshipped with branches they laid at His feet
But then the same crowd said that He could not stay
They demanded His death, and they led Him away
Go tell the people, Jesus is dying
Up on a cross where they've lifted Him high
Go tell the people, Jesus is dying
Gone is the hope of eternal life
Two days passed by in a dark lonely tomb
It appeared that the Savior forever was doomed
But on the third day, a defeater of death
The Father said, "Rise", and He breathed a fresh breath
Go tell the people, Jesus is risen
Jesus is risen, oh, yes, He's alive
Go tell the people, Jesus is living
Long live the hope of eternal life
Then Jesus appeared then to His closest friends
He said, "Don't forget that I'm coming again
But the next time I come, every knee will bow down
And whose who believed will inherit a crown"
Go tell the people, Jesus is coming
Down from the clouds soon to take us away
Go tell the people we'd better be ready
We know not the hour, and we know not the day
Go tell the people, Jesus is coming
Down from the clouds soon to take us away
Go tell the people we'd better be ready
We know not the hour, and we know not the day
Go tell the people we'd better be ready
We know not the hour, and we know not the day
When Jesus returns and He takes us away
