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 its true. It satisfies my longings As nothing else can do. Refrain: 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. [Refrain] 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. [Refrain] 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. [Refrain]
