Chris Rice Tell Me The Story Again Lyrics

Tell Me The Story Again Lyrics

Start with an infant world and an open sky

On a perfect day, breath from the mouth of God

Sends a quiver through His design of clay

And it is good, and it is good



Tell me the story again

Tell me the story again

Wake to a girl beside

Here's a hand to hold and never go away



Now taste the forbidden fruit

Make a poor excuse

Feel the wall of shame

And run and hide, and run and hide



Tell me the story again

Tell me the story again

Child in a manger bed

See the virgin smile, she understood



Now grow up and break your bread

Pour your cup of wine

On a cross of wood

A cross of wood, a cross of wood



Tell me the story again

Tell me the story again

Tell me the story again

Tell me the story again



Time twenty centuries

There's a boy on his knees

At the river's edge

Now plunge with his guilty stains

In the cleansing waves

And wash his sins away



Oh, happy day

Oh, happy day

Oh, happy day

Oh, happy day



Tell me that story again

Tell me that story again

Tell me the story, tell me the story

Tell me the story, tell me the story again



Start with an infant world

And an open sky on a perfect day
