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 ’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.
2
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.
3
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,
for some have never heard
the message of salvation
from God’s own holy Word.
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, in scenes of glory,
I sing the new, new song,
’twill be the old, old story
that I have loved so long.

nice song
I love this song
Beautiful song
My favorite song since I was a teenager. Every time I sing that song, it seems like the Angels in heaven are singing along with me.
457: I love to tell the Story.
It really touch my soul
Ths has become my favorite song
Why are there missing verses different to the seven original verses Fanny Crosby wrote? Just wondering. None of them seem to have lyrics that are different to our faith and believes.
