SINGING TIME. “TELL ME THE STORIES OF JESUS” song visuals. Youth can feel like Jesus is near as they sing “stories of Jesus I love to hear, Things I would ask him to tell me if he were here.” They imagine gathering around Him to hear His “Words” of “kindness” and see His “love-light” face. Trusting as His disciples did, He “hushed the wind” of the troubled sea.

Lyrics

  1. Tell me the stories of Jesus I love to hear,

    Things I would ask him to tell me if he were here.

    Scenes by the wayside, tales of the sea,

    Stories of Jesus, tell them to me.

  2. Oh, let me hear how the children stood round his knee.

    I shall imagine his blessings resting on me;

    Words full of kindness, deeds full of grace,

    All in the love-light of Jesus’ face.

  3. Tell me, in accents of wonder, how rolled the sea,

    Tossing the boat in a tempest on Galilee!

    And how the Master, ready and kind,

    Chided the billows and hushed the wind.

Words: W. H. Parker, 1845–1929

Music: Frederic A. Challinor, 1866–1952
