312. Jesus Loves Me, This I Know

4-7s.
1
Jesus loves me, this I know,
 
For the Bible tells me so;
 
Little ones to Him belong;
 
They are weak, but He is strong.
 
Yes, Jesus loves me!
 
Yes, Jesus loves me!
 
Yes, Jesus loves me!
 
The Bible tells me so.
2
Jesus loves me, He who died
 
Heaven’s gate to open wide;
 
He will wash away my sin,
 
Let a little child come in.
3
Jesus loves me though I’m bad,
 
And He waits to make me glad,
 
Waits to fold me in His arm,
 
Keeps me safe from every harm.
4
Jesus loves me, loves me still,
 
When I’m very weak and ill;
 
From His shining home on high,
 
He will watch me where I lie.
5
Jesus loves me, He will stay
 
Close beside me all the way;
 
If I trust Him, should I die,
 
He will take me home on high.
