I Love To Tell The Story

I Love To Tell The Story Katherine Hankey; William G. Fischer 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. 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. 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— Fr some have never heard The message of salvation From God’s own holy Word. 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.
