Verse 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, The Bible tells me so.
Refrain
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, Heaven's gate to open wide; He will wash away my sin, Let his little child come in. Yes, Jesus loves me, The Bible tells me so.
Verse 3
Jesus loves me! he will stay, Close beside me all the way; If I love him, he will take Me at last to heaven's sake. Yes, Jesus loves me, The Bible tells me so.
