Peter, Paul And Mary - You Can Tell The World Lyrics






You can tell the world about this
You can tell the nations about that
Tell'em what the master has done
Tell'em that the gospel has come
Tell'em that the victory's been won
He brought joy, joy, joy,
Into my heart

Well my Lord spoke, he spoke to me
Yes he did, yes he did
Talked about a man from Galilee
Yes he did, yes he did
Well my Lord spoke, and he spoke so well
Yes he did, yes he did
All about the fire that burned in hell
Yes he did, yes he did
The Jordan River is deep and wide
Yes he did, yes he did
And I got a home on the other side
Yes he did, yes he did
He brought joy, joy, joy into my heart

You can tell the world about this
You can tell the nations about that
Tell'em what the master has done
Tell'em that the gospel has come
Tell'em that the victory's been won
He brought joy, joy, joy,
Into my heart

Who's the yonder dressed in white?
Yes he did, yes he did
Must be the children of the Israelite
Yes he did, yes he did
Who's the yonder dressed in red?
Yes he did, yes he did
Must be the children that Moses led
Yes he did, yes he did
Who's the yonder dressed in black?
Yes he did, yes he did
Must be the hypocrites turning back
Yes he did, yes he did
He brought joy, joy, joy,
Into my heart

You can tell the world about this
You can tell the nations about that
Tell'em what the master has done
Tell'em that the gospel has come
Tell'em that the victory's been won
Tell'em what the master has done
Tell'em that the gospel has come
Tell'em that the victory's been won

He brought joy, joy, joy,
He brought joy, joy, joy,
He brought joy, joy, joy,
Into my heart

    This was recorded year after the others did. P P M. Master of harmony

  2. t.... H....

    The Chad Mitchell Trio version is far better than this.

  3. G.... ....

    No where near as good as The Seekers version, either studio or live.

    G.... ....

    the songs were recorded at different times PP&M this was from the 2004 just before Mary passed

    G.... ....

    Robert, . . . More than a half dozen renditions of this song are available, each with slight variations in lyrics. The original was written by Bob Gibson over 50 years ago.
    I like the Seekers' version also, but what is most important to note is that the theme is the same. The Master has come and is returning soon. - - - - And his name is not Mohammed or Buddha or Obama or Allah. J.C.I.L.
