Hymn 246
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,
j 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;
R e me m be r! I'm the sinner
Who m Jesus came to save;
Tell me the story always,
If you would really b e,
In any time of trouble,
A comforter to me.
- Tell me the s a me old story.
When you have cause to fear
That this world's empty glory
Is costing me too dear;
Yes, and when that world's glory
Is dawning on my soul.
Tell me the old, old story;
"Christ Jesus makes thee whole."
