1 I love to tell the story
of unseen things above,
Of Jesus' radiant glory,
of Jesus' endless love.
I love to tell the story,
because I know it's true;
it satisfies my longings
as nothing else can do.
Refrain:
I love to tell the story;
and when I am in glory
I'll tell the old, old story
of Jesus' endless love.
2 I love to tell the story;
more wonderful it seems
than all the golden visions
of all our golden dreams.
I love to tell the story,
I tell it now to you
because I want to share it,
because I know it's true. [Refrain]
3 I love to tell the story;
it's 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 I sing in glory,
I know the new, new song
will be the old, old story
that I have loved so long. [Refrain]
