Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I love to tell the story
Of unseen things above
Of Jesus and His glory
Of Jesus and His love
[Verse 2]
I love to tell the story
Because I know 'tis true
It satisfies my longings
As nothing else can do
[Verse 3]
I love to tell the story
'Twill be my theme in glory
To tell the old, old story
Of Jesus and His love
[Verse 4]
I love to tell the story
For those who know it best
Seem hungering and thirsting
To hear it like the rest
[Verse 5]
And when, in scenes of glory
I sing the new, new song
'Twill be the old, old story
That I have loved so long
[Verse 6]
I love to tell the story
'Twill be my theme in glory
To tell the old, old story
Of Jesus and His love
To tell the old, old story
Of Jesus and His love
Written by: Katherine Hankey, William G. Fischer
