I Love to Tell the Story

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
I love to tell the story 'twill be my theme in glory
To tell the old old story of Jesus and his love
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
I love to tell the story 'twill be my theme in glory…
I love to tell the story for those who know it best
Seen hungering and thirsting to hear it like the rest
And when in scenes of glory I sing the new song
'Twill be the old old story that I have loved so long
I love to tell the story 'twill be my theme in glory…
