Tell Me the Old, Old Story
Author: Katherine Hankey (1834-1911) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D with refrain Appears in 521 hymnals Topics: Jesus Christ Love of Christ for Us Lyrics: 1 Tell me the old, old story of unseen things above,
Of Jesus and His glory, of Jesus and His love.
Tell me the story simply, as to a little child,
For I am weak and weary, and helpless and defiled.
Refrain
Tell me the old, old story, tell me the old, old story,
Tell me the old, old story, of Jesus and His love.
2 Tell me the story softly, with earnest tones and grave;
Remember I’m the sinner whom Jesus came to save.
Tell me the story always, if you would really be,
In any time of trouble, a comforter to me. [Refrain]
3 Tell me the same old story when you have cause to fear
That this world’s empty glory is costing me too dear.
Yes, and when that world’s glory is dawning on my soul,
Tell me the old, old story: “Christ Jesus makes thee whole.” [Refrain] Used With Tune: EVANGEL

Jesus, Thy boundless love to me
Appears in 353 hymnals Topics: Christ Love of; Christ Love of Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thy boundless love to me
No thought can reach, no tongue declare;
Unite my thankful heart to Thee,
And reign without a rival there.
Thine wholly, Thine alone I am;
Be Thou alone my constant flame.
2 Oh, grant that nothing in my soul
May dwell, but Thy pure love alone!
Oh, may Thy love possess me whole,
And be my treasure, and my crown!
Strange flames far from my heart remove;
May every act, word, thought, be love!
3 O Love, how cheering is thy ray!
All pain before thy presence flies:
Care, anguish, sorrow, melt away,
Where'er thy healing beams arise.
O Jesus, nothing may I see,
Nothing desire or seek but Thee!
4 O draw me, Saviour, after Thee!
So shall I run and never tire.
With gracious words still comfort me;
Be Thou my hope, my sole desire.
Free me from every weight: not fear
No sin can come, if Thou art here.
5 From all eternity, with love
Unchangeable Thou hast me viewed;
Ere knew this beating heart to move,
Thy tender mercies me pursued.
Ever with me may they abide,
And close me in on every side.
6 Still let Thy love point out my way;
What wondrous things Thy love hath wrought!
Still lead me, lest I go astray;
Direct my word, inspire my thought;
And if I fall, soon may I hear
Thy voice, and know that love is near.
7 In suffering, be Thy love my peace;
In weakness, be Thy love my power;
And when the storms of life shall cease,
Jesus, in that dark final hour
Of death, be Thou my guide and friend,
That I may love Thee without end. Used With Tune: OUR HEAVENLY FATHER, HEAR OUR PRAYER

And granted my request;
In Him Who hears and answers prayer
My trust thro' life shall rest.

My heart was full of grief;
Then to the Lord I made my prayer
That He would send relief.

And gracious to the meek;

Tho' I was poor and weak.
4 Return unto thy rest, my soul,
No longer troubled be;
The Lord sustains thee, and has dealt
Most graciously with thee.
5 Before my Saviour I will live,
From death He saved my soul,
My eyes from tears, my feet from falls,
And He has made me whole.
6 In my affliction this I found,
That human help deceived,
But ever faithful was the Lord
In Whom my soul believed. Scripture: Psalm 116 Used With Tune: AZMON
