Intro

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 again

Start with an infant world

 And an open sky on a perfect day
