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 could 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; '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.
?
3. 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.
