I LOVE TO HEAR THE STORY

I love to hear the story

Which angel voices tell,

How once the King of Glory

Came down to 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.

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,

He never will forget me,

Because He loved me so.

To sing His love and mercy,

My sweetest songs I‟ll raise,

And though I cannot see Him,

I know He hears my praise!

For He has kindly promised

That I shall surely go

To sing among His angels,

Because He loved me so.
