I LOVE TO TELL THE STORY
1. I love to tell the story
Of unseen things above,
Of Jesus and His glory,
Of Jesus and His love.
I love to tell the Story,
Because I know >tis true;
It satisfies my longings
As nothing else can do.
Chorus:
I love to tell the Story!
will be my theme in glory,
To tell the Old-Old story,
Of Jesus and His love.
2. I love to tell the Story:
More wonderful it seems
Than all the golden fancies
Of all our golden dreams.
I love to tell the Story
It did so much for me;
And that is just the reason
I tell it now to thee.
3. I love to tell the Story:
is pleasant to repeat
What seems, each time I tell it,
More wonderfully sweet.
I love to tell the Story:
For some have never heard
The message of salvation
From God’s own Holy Word.
4. I love to tell the Story:
For those who know it best
Seem hungering and thirsting
To hear it like the rest.
And when, in scenes of glory,
I sing the new, new song,
will be the old, old Story.
That I have loved so long.
