Tell it Out
From Under the Surface
Tell it out among the heathen that the Lord is King !
Tell it out, tell it out !
Tell it out among the nations, bid them shout and sing !
Tell it out, tell it out !
Tell it out with adoration, that He shall increase ;
That the mighty King of Glory is the King of Peace.
Tell it out with jubilation, though the waves may roar,
That He sitteth on the water-floods, our King for ever- more !
Tell it out, etc.
Tell it out among the nations that the Saviour reigns !
Tell it out, tell it out !
Tell it out among the heathen, bid them burst their chains !
Tell it out, tell it out !
Tell it out among the weeping ones that Jesus lives ;
Tell it out among the weary ones what rest He gives ;
Tell it out among the sinners that He came to save ;
Tell it out among the dying that He triumphed o'er the grave.
Tell it out, etc.
Tell it out among the heathen Jesus reigns above !
Tell it out, tell it out !
Tell it out among the nations that His name is Love !
Tell it out, tell it out !
Tell it out among the highways, and the lanes at home ;
Let it ring across the mountains and the ocean foam ;
Like the sound of many waters let our glad shout be,
Till it echo and re-echo from the islands of the sea !
Tell it out, etc.
