Tell me the old, old story

Tell me the old, old story, Of unseen things above, Of Jesus and His glory, Of Jesus and His love; Tell me the story simply, As to a little child, For I am weak and weary, And helpless and defiled. |
| Tell me the old, old story, Tell me the old, old story, Tell me the old, old story, Of Jesus and His love. |

Tell me the story slowly, That I may take it in— That wonderful redemption, God’s remedy for sin; Tell me the story often, For I forget so soon, The “early dew” of morning Has passed away at noon. |

Tell me the story softly, With earnest tones and grave; Remember I’m the sinner Whom Jesus came to save; Tell me the story always, If you would really be, In any time of trouble, A comforter to me. |

Tell me the same old story, When you have cause to fear That this world’s empty glory Is costing me too dear; And when the Lord’s bright glory Is dawning on my soul, Tell me the old, old story: “Christ Jesus makes thee whole.” |

Heard this hymn last week. I have sharing the stanzas on my status. Unfortunately, modernism is diluting the true story of Jesus and his love.

This song came to mind tonight. How grateful I am to LOVE ❤️ the stories & the Bible. I’m so thankful that it is not a chore & I don’t need to force myself to pray, worship or read. Thank You Jesus!

Praise our matchless GOD for these hymn writers whose works are sadly being buried - along with the hymn books - by the "modern" church. Sad.......
