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.
• 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 my 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.

Nov. 5, 2009Ronald C DenhardLondon, United KingdomI learned this hymn in my youth after I accepted Jesus as Saviour at 15 years of age. Since then 'I love to tell the story' to whoever will listen. I am now 85 years of age and still rejoice in the day I accepted Him. 'Taste and see that the Lord is Good'.
