RHC 568 Tell Me the Stories of Jesus

(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)
First let me hear how the children
Stood round his knee,
And I shall fancy his blessing
Resting on me;
Words full of kindness, Deeds full of grace,
All in the love-light of Jesus' face.

(3)
Into the city I'd follow
The children's band,
Waving a branch of the palm tree
High in my hand;
One of his heralds, Yes, I would sing
Loudest hosannas, "Jesus is King!"
