Precious Old Story

Author: James Fraser Hymnal: Melodies of Grace and Truth #1 (1908) First Line: We sing of a precious old story Refrain First Line: Oh, dear old story, oh, precious old story Lyrics: 1 We sing of a precious old story, The sweetest that ver was told, How Jesus left heaven and glory, His wonderful grace to unfold. Chorus: Oh, dear old story, o precious old story, The sweetest that ever was told; How Jesus let heaven and glory, His wonderful grace to unfold. 2 The friend of the sad and forsaken, Despised and rejected of men, O wonderful love of the Father, Such sinnrs to save and befriend. [Chorus] 3 The sun in the ev'ning was setting, They gathered around at the door, He came forth in love and compassion, The sick and deseased to restore. [Chorus] 4 They crown'd Him with thorns in derision, And led Him to Calvary's hill, That bitter cup drank, now forever, Our cup He with blessing can fill [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [We sing of a precious old story]
