1. I love to tell 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 Savior
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.
3. 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.
