The Story Never Old (Gabriel)

The sweet­est story told on earth

Or heard in Heav’n ab­ove

Is told of Je­sus and His birth

Of Je­sus and His love.

O sto­ry nev­er old

The sweet­est ev­er told!

Until the gates of gold

Swing back for me;

I’ll tell it o’er and o’er

And then on yon­der shore

It still for­ev­er­more my song shall be.

He took up­on Him­self the guilt

Of all my sins and thine

And on the cross of Cal­va­ry

He paid thy debt and mine.

There was no oth­er good enough

To pay the price of sin;

He on­ly could un­lock the gate

Of Heav’n and let us in.

O dear­ly

dear­ly hath He loved

And we must love Him

too

And trust in His re­deem­ing love

And try His works to do.
