'Rwy'n caru dweud yr hanes,
Am fawrion bethau'r nef;
Am Iesu a'i ogoniant,
A'i ryfedd gariad Ef;
'Rwy'n caru gweud yr hanes,
Hen hanes cariad drud,
Mae'n llanw 'nymuniadau
Mae'n hollol dwyn fy mryd.
Rwy'n caru dweud yr hanes,
Ac yn y nef yn gynnes
Caf ddweud yr
hen, hen hanes
Am Iesu a'i werthfawr waed.
'Rwy'n caru dweud yr hanes,
Mwy rhyfedd yw y gwaith
Na ddim erioed a welwyd
Trwy nef a'r ddaear faith;
'Rwy'n caru dweud yr hanes,
O gymaint wnaeth i mi!
A thyna pam 'rwy'n caru
Ei adrodd wrthyt ti.
'Rwy'n caru dweud yr hanes,
Mor felys yw i'm bryd!
Bob tro 'rwyf yn ei adrodd
Melysach yw o hyd;
'Rwy'n caru dweud yr hanes
Wrth rai na chlywsant sôn
Am ffordd yr iachawdwriaeth,
Trwy werthfawr
waed yr Oen.
'Rwy'n caru dweud yr hanes,
Mae'r rhai yn awr a'i gŵyr
Mewn syched eto'n gwrando,
Heb flino fore a hwyr;
A phan yr af i'r nefoedd,
Y newydd, newydd gân
A fydd yr hen, hen hanes
Oedd annwyl im' o'r bla'n.

I love to tell the story,
Of the great things of heaven;
Of Jesus and his glory,
And His amazing love;
I love to tell the story,
An old story of costly love,
It fills my desires
It completely takes my heart.
I love to tell the story,
An in heaven warmly
I will get to tell the
old, old story
Of Jesus and his precious blood.
I love to tell the story,
More wonderful is the work,
Than anything ever seen
Through heaven and the vast earth;
I love to tell the story,
Of how much he did for me!
And that is why I love
To report him to thee.
I love to tell the story,
How sweet it is to my mind!
Every time I report it
It is sweeter still;
I love to tell the story
To those who have not heard mention
Of the way of the salvation
Through the precious
blood of the Lamb.
I love to tell the story,
There are those now who know it
In thirst still to hear,
Without tiring morning and evening;
And when I go to the heavens,
The new, new song
Will be the old, old story
That was dear to me before.
tr. 2010 Richard B Gillion

I love to tell the story
Of unseen things above,
Of Jesus and His glory,
Of Jesus and His love.
I love to tell the story,
Because I know 'tis true;
It satisfies my longings
As nothing else can do.
I love to tell the story,
'Twill be my theme in glory,
To tell the
old, old story
Of Jesus and His love.
I love to tell the story;
More wonderful it seems
Than all the golden fancies
Of all our golden dreams.
I love to tell the story,
It did so much for me;
And that is just the reason
I tell it now to thee.
I love to tell the story;
'Tis pleasant to repeat
What seems, each time I tell it,
More wonderfully sweet.
I love to tell the story,
For some have never heard
The message of salvation
From God's own
holy Word.
I love to tell the story,
For those who know it best
Seem hungering and thirsting
To hear it like the rest.
And when, in scenes of glory,
I sing the new, new song,
'Twill be the old, old story
That I have loved so long.
