Lord, please back to the old hymns!!!

[theinsectmanofwv]

Brothers and sisters in Christ, Let's keep telling this (TRUE) story of Jesus and His love!

[andrewlee]

Eternal Truth. For there is no respect of persons with God (KJV). Greatest hope for everyone both the living and the dead to be redeemed -see @ and the Holy Scriptures

What an old hymn this is. Telling the story of Jesus and his love for us is wonderful

[nanikdasani]

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 would do.
Refrain:
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, more wonderful it seems
Than all the golden fancies of all our golden dreams;
I love to tell the story, it did so much for me,
And that is just the reason I tell it now to thee.
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, 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.

So beautiful! I love the descant at the end. It's an old, old story, but how fantastic it is! Looking forward to singing it in those scenes of glory, for all eternity! I honestly get choked up and cannot sing that stanza, but Lord I love it so.

[nilopereira]

Y cuando el nuevo canto, en gloria entonaré, será la antigua historia que en vida tanto amé. Yo amo contar la historia, mi tema allá en la gloria, será contar la historia de Cristo y de su amor.

[irenejohnston]

That was wonderful, Martin. Will look forward to hearing the Choir singing it hopefully before too long. I have always loved that hymn but it was to a different tune years ago although I do know and like the one performed by the Choir in the video. Never heard of "Hankey". Could it be "Sankey"? Maybe it's just me of course. Most enjoyable anyway. I🎼🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵

I am curious to talk to Catherine hankey.
To just ask her what her general thoughts were about john 12: 25 and mark 8: 35.
While she wrote this song.
This has always been my favourite hymn.
And I do like hymns.
