4. I Love to Tell the Story

    1.
    I love to tell the story of unseen things right here,
    of endless infinite loving, of Eden without fear.
    I love to tell the story, because I know ’tis true;
    It satisfies my longings as nothing else can do.

    Refrain:
    I love to tell the story, it is my theme in glory,
    to tell the old, old story of one that isn’t two.

    2.
    I love to tell the story; more wonderful it seems
    Than all the techie fancies of all our techie dreams.
    I love to tell the story, it does so much for me;
    And that is just the reason I tell it now to thee.

    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 here, in scenes of glory, I sing the new, new song.
    It is the old, old story that I have loved so long.

    Refrain.
