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 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 I love to tell the story 'Twill be my theme in glory To tell the old, old story Of Jesus and His love To tell the old, old story Of Jesus and His love
