I Love to Tell the Story
G C G
I love to tell the story of unseen things above
D G D
Of Jesus and His glory of Jesus and his love
G Em B7
I love to tell the story because I know 'tis true
C G D G
It satisfies my longings as nothing else can do
(Chorus)
D G C G
I love to tell the story, 'twill be my theme in glory
G7 C G D G
To tell the old, old story of Jesus and his love
G C G
I love to tell the story 'tis pleasant to repeat
D G D
What seems each time I tell it more wonderfully sweet
G Em B7
I love to tell the story for some have never heard
C G D G
The message of salvation from God's own holy word
G C G
I love to tell the story, for those who know it best
D G D
Seem hungering and thirsting to hear it like the rest.
G Em B7
And when in scenes of glory I sing the new, new song
C G D G
'twill be the old, old story that I have loved so long
