I Love to Tell the Story

I love the 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 longing as nothing else can do
I love to tell the story, twill be my theme in glory
To tell the old, old story, Of Jesus and His love

I love the 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

I love the 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

I love the 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
