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.
Jesus loves me, He who died,
Heaven’s gate to open wide.
He will wash away my sin,
Let a little child come in.
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.
Yes, Jesus loves me,
The Bible tells me so.
“A friend loveth at all times.” Prov. 17:17.
