Author: James Fraser Hymnal: Redemption Songs #90 (1937) First Line: When I think of Him who hath lov'd me so Refrain First Line: O the dear old story, the precious story Lyrics: 1 When I think of Him who hath lov'd me so,
Who left His home for this vale of woe,
Was cradled in a manger low,
O it's a precious old story!
Refrain:
O the dear old story, the precious story,
That fills my heart with grace and glory,
The sweetest song in heav'n I'll sing,
'Twill be the old, old story!
2 How He heal'd the sick and restor'd the blind,
And cheer'd the heart that in sorrow pin'd,
The tender Saviour, loving kind,
O it's a precious old story! [Refrain]
3 As wearied He sat at Samaria's well,
The story of love did sweetly tell,
His gracious words of mercy fell,
O it's a precious old story! [Refrain]
4 My griefs He carried, my sorrows bore,
His brow was scarr'd by the thorns He wore,
But now He reigns for evermore,
O it's a precious old story! [Refrain] Topics: The Gospel Languages: English Tune Title: [When I think of Him who hath lov'd me so]
