Methodist-Hymns-856
1: I LOVE to hear the story
Which angel 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,
He never will forget me,
Because he loves me so.
3: To tell his love and mercy
My sweetest songs I’ll raise;
And though I cannot see him,
I know he hears my praise;
For he himself has promised
That even I may go
To sing among his angels,
Because he loves me so.
