Hymn 71
I love to hear the story
1. I love to hear the story
Which angels voices tell,
how once the King of Glory
Came down on earth to dwell,
I am both weak and sinful
But this I surely know,
The Lord came down to save me,
Because He loved me so.
2. I’m glad my blessed Saviour
Was once a child like me,
To show how pure and holy
His little ones might be;
And, if I try to follow
His footsteps here below,
His never will forsake me,
Because He loves me so..
3. To sing His love and mercy
My sweetest songs I’ll raise,
And, tough I cannot see Him,
I know He hears my praise;
For He has kindly promised
That even I may go
To sing among His angels
Because He loves me so.
