Lyric
🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤
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 longing as nothing else would doI love to tell the story, ’twill be my theme in glory
To tell the old, old story of Jesus and his loveI 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 theeI 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
