Tell You About Jesus

This is an interesting song from a lyrical perspective. As I wrote this song the lyrics that came to mind were "I just want to be the one to tell you about Jesus". The song art, show above, really communicates what I was thinking and feeling as I wrote this song. It's an evangelistic song that expresses the joy that we have in telling others about Jesus. While this song doesn't really fall into the worship song category or the spiritual formation category, it is a song of a spiritual nature.

All worship music has an evangelistic element as described in Psalm 40:3, "He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear and put their trust in the Lord". This song, however, is direct in it's evangelistic approach as the lyrics are directed directly to those who have not yet put their trust in Jesus as their personal Savior.

As you listen to and sing this song you'll also find that it does encourage us as believers to share the message of Christ with others. It could be especially effective sung by a children's choir or youth group.

I just want to be your friend
I just want to hold your hand
I just want to be the one to
Tell you about Jesus

I call you friend
Even though we're strangers
But there's nothing
Stranger than the love of God
So take my hand
And I will lead you closer
I wanna lead you
Closer to the face of God

I want to see you smile
To know that you're God's child
I want to be the one
To tell you about Jesus
