I have heard of Jesus in Bethlehem born, Of whom it hath been said, That a star the wise men followed from far, Till they reached His lowly bed.
He is my Saviour ! This same Jesus of whom I've heard ; He is my Saviour! I've found it in His Word.
2. I have heard of Jesus on Galilee's wave; The wind obeyed His will, And the sea grew calm at hearing His voice In the wondrous "Peace,be still !"
3. I have heard of Jesus at Bethany's home, When standing by the grave, How He cried, "Come forth, O Lazarus,now!" In His mighty power to save.
4. I have heard of Jesus on Calvary's brow, He died a Saviour true ; " And He said, " Forgive them, Father, I pray, For they know not what they do."
5. I have heard of Jesus in sepulchre laid, In death's dark, sullen gloom ; How He burst the bars, and rising, came forth, Mighty Victor from the tomb.
