Jesus Loves Me
Jesus loves me! This I know,
For the Bible tells me so.
Little ones to Him belong;
They are weak, but He is strong.
Refrain
Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
The Bible tells me so.
Jesus loves me! This I know,
As He loved so long ago,
Taking children on His knee,
Saying, “Let them come to Me.”
Refrain
Jesus loves me still today,
Walking with me on my way,
Wanting as a friend to give
Light and love to all who live.
Refrain

With Singing
Within the precious hours of each day, smiling souls delight in prayer
Guided by the Spirit of Truth; protected by angelic care.
Hearts are filled with peace from the holy kiss of Light,
Changing us with saving faith and new humble sight.
The children of God rejoice in His eternal place
Surrounded by His glory and amazing grace.
Be still now and listen to the
Infinite heart song
Of God.
