Because I Know ‘Tis True;
It Satisfies My Longings
As Nothing Else Can Do.

I Love To Tell The Story;
‘Tis Pleasant To Repeat
What Seems, Each Time I Tell It,
More Wonderfully Sweet.

For Some Have Never Heard
The Message Of Salvation
From God’s Own Holy Word.

I Sing The New, New Song,

That I Have Loved So Long.
