Tell Me the Stories of Jesus
Author: William H. Parker, 1845-1929 Meter: 8.4.8.4.5.4.5.4 Appears in 153 hymnals 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 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!"

Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 843 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Hail to the Lord's Anointed,
Great David's greater Son!
Hail in the time appointed,
His reign on earth begun!
He comes to break oppression,
To set the captive free;
To take away transgression,
And rule in equity.
2 He comes with succor speedy
To those who suffer wrong;
To help the poor and needy,
And bid the weak be strong;
To give them songs for sighing,
Their darkness turn to light,
Whose souls, condemned and dying,
Are precious in His sight,
3 He shall come down like showers
Upon the fruitful earth,
Love, joy, and hope, like flowers,
Spring in His path to birth:
Before Him, on the mountains,
Shall peace, the herald, go,
And righteousness, in fountains,
From hill to valley flow.
4 To Him shall prayer unceasing
And daily vows ascend;
His kingdom still increasing,
A kingdom without end:
The tide of time shall never
His covenant remove,
His name shall stand forever;
That Name to us is Love. Topics: Advent First; Jesus Christ His Ascension and Reign; Jesus Christ His Glory and Power; Jesus Christ His Life and Ministry; Jesus Christ His Name; New Birth Scripture: Luke 4:18 Used With Tune: SHEFFIELD
