"Tell Me the Stories of Jesus"

"Tell Me the Stories of Jesus," p. 57, has been sung by children for many years.  Read through the words and choose pictures that illustrate the stories that are mentioned in the song.

• Jesus surrounded by children
• Jesus by the sea
• Jesus calming the tempest at sea

You can also use word strips to prompt the children.  

The 3rd verse uses words that the children probably won't be familiar with.

• "Tell me, in accents of wonder, how rolled the sea," means: tell me all about the story of Jesus calming the sea.
• "Chided the billow's and hushed the wind."  means: commanded the waves "billows" and the wind to be calm.

Always help the children to understand what they are singing.

If you are learning all 3 verses, be sure to review each week so everyone remembers the words.
