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.
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.
Verse 3. 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.
The refrain is sung after each verse.

The whole library holds 99 hymns, and the church slides tool puts any of them on the screen, with a PowerPoint download and a printed handout.
