I Love to Tell the Story Songtext

von Emmylou Harris

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
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
I love to tell the story 'twill be my theme in glory
To tell the old old story of Jesus and His love
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
I love to tell the story 'twill be my theme in glory
To tell the old, old story of Jesus and his love
To tell the old, old story of Jesus and his love
