Introduction
There’s something deeply comforting about “Tell Me One More Time About Jesus”. It’s like a gentle hand on your shoulder, pulling you into a conversation about faith that feels as intimate as a heart-to-heart with a lifelong friend. Vince Gill’s voice, always known for its softness and sincerity, takes on a new level of warmth here, almost like he’s singing to his own soul.
What’s special about this song is how it captures the timelessness of faith. In a world that’s constantly changing, Gill invites us back to the simplicity of believing, to the stories of Jesus that many of us first heard as children. The gentle melody paired with the heartfelt lyrics feels like a lullaby for the spirit, soothing in its simplicity and profound in its message. The song is a reminder that sometimes we just need to hear those old, familiar words again. Not because we’ve forgotten, but because they ground us, giving us peace when the world gets too loud.
Vince Gill co-wrote this song with his wife, Amy Grant, and you can feel the deep personal connection he has with the message. It’s not just about telling a story—it’s about reliving it, savoring the beauty in the retelling. This song stands out because it doesn’t preach; it invites. There’s no pressure, no grand declaration—just a quiet, humble request: Tell me one more time. And in that request, there’s a yearning for closeness, for understanding, for faith to once again be renewed.
What I love about this track is that it resonates whether you’re devout or simply someone searching for meaning. The simplicity of Vince’s delivery, combined with the subtle yet powerful instrumentation, makes this a song for reflection. It’s a piece that gently nudges you to pause, to remember, and to feel connected to something bigger than yourself.

Lyrics
Tell me one more time about Jesus
All about forgiveness and grace
Tell me one more time about Jesus
All about my Savior’s face
Here comes my old friend the preacher
He’s knocking at my door
He’s out tryin’ to save all the sinners
He’s been here so many times before
I love the easy conversation
Man that preacher sure can talk
Brings up my need for salvation
Even though he knows I’m stubborn to a fault
Tell me one more time about Jesus
All about forgiveness and grace
Tell me one more time about Jesus
Lord I need just a little more faith
I walked by the church Sunday mornin’
Slipped on in the back door
Sure been a long time coming
Tell preacher what I need to know
His words were like a cool drink of water
He said sinners come on down the aisle
So I went runnin’ for the alter
Should have seen my old friend the preacher smile
