Hymnal: The Christian Sunday School Hymnal #44 (1883) Lyrics: 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 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] Scripture: 1 Corinthians 2:2 Tune Title: [I love to tell the story]
