“I Love to tell the story”

A hymn written by Arabella K. Hankey
  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 it's true!
    It satisfies my longings
    As nothing else would do.
     Chorus

        I love to tell the Story!
        'Twill be my theme in glory
        To tell the Old, Old Story
        Of Jesus and His love.
  1. 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.
  1. I love to tell the story!
    'Tis pleasant to repeat
    What seems, each time I tell it,
    More wonderully sweet,
    I love to tell the story!
    For some have never heard
    The message of salvation
    From God's own holy Word.
  1. 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.
