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 could do.
    I love to tell the story;
    ’twill 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.
    I love to tell the story;
    ’twill be my theme in glory
    to tell the old, old story
    of Jesus and his love.
  3. I love to tell the story;
    ’tis 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.
    I love to tell the story;
    ’twill be my theme in glory
    to tell the old, old story
    of Jesus and his love.
  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,
    ’twill be the old, old story
    that I have loved so long.
    I love to tell the story;
    ’twill be my theme in glory
    to tell the old, old story
    of Jesus and his love.
