Lyrics

Verse 1
Jesus loves me—this I know,
For the Bi­ble tells me so; (Rom. 8:38-39, I John 3:16, Rev. 1:5)
Little ones to Him be­long— (Matt. 19:14, Mark 10:14, Luke 18:16)
They are weak, but He is strong. (II Cor. 12:9)

Chorus
Yes, Je­sus loves me!
Yes, Je­sus loves me!
Yes, Je­sus loves me!
The Bi­ble tells me so.

Verse 2
Jesus loves me—He who died (Rom. 5:8, Gal. 2:20)
Heaven’s gate to op­en wide;
He will wash away my sin, (I John 1:7, Rev. 1:5)
Let His lit­tle child come in.

Verse 3
Jesus loves me—loves me still,
Though I’m ve­ry weak and ill;
From His shin­ing throne on high
Comes to watch me where I lie.

Verse 4
Jesus loves me—He will stay
Close be­side me all the way, (Matt. 28:20, Heb. 13:5, Ps. 23:4)
Then His lit­tle child will take
Up to Heav­en for His dear sake.
