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) 

2.	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.  
	(Refrain) 

3.	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.
	(Refrain) 

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