Jesus Loves Me This I Know For The Bible Tells Me So
Jesus Love Me
Words by Anna Bartlett Warner (1859) and David McGuire (1971)
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:
The Bible tells me so
(He tells me so)
(His Spirit tells me so)
Jesus′ loves me, He Who died
Heaven’s gate to open wide
He will wash away my sin
Let His little child come in
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
Refrain:
Jesus′ loves me He will stay
Close beside me all the way
If I love Him when I die
He will take me home on high
