lyrics

THE JESUS LOVES ME BLUES
ARR. Kenneth E. Robertson

JESUS LOVES ME THIS I KNOW
FOR THE BIBLE IT TELLS ME SO
LITTLE ONES TO HIM BELONG
WE ARE WEAK BUT HE IS STRONG

(CHORUS)
YES MY JESUS, MY JESUS LOVES ME
YES MY JESUS. MY JESUS LOVES ME
GUESS WHAT? HE LOVES YOU TOO!

JESUS LOVES ME HE WHO DIED
HEAVEN'S GATES TO OPEN WIDE
HE WILL WASH AWAY MY SIN
LET HIS LITTLE CHILD COME IN

(Repeat CHORUS)

(BRIDGE)
THO I FORGET HIM AND WANDER AWAY,
STILL HE WILL LOVE ME WHEREVER I STRAY
BACK TO HIS LOVING ARMS WOULD I FLEE
WHEN I REMEMBER THAT JESUS LOVES ME

JESUS LOVES ME HE WILL STAY
CLOSE BESIDE ME ALL THE WAY
HE'S PREPARED A HOME FOR ME
AND SOMEDAY HIS FACE I'LL SEE

(Repeat CHORUS)

IF THERE'S ONLY ONE SONG I CAN SING
WHEN IN HIS BEAUTY I SEE THE GREAT KING
THIS SHALL MY SONG IN ETERNITY BE
OH WHAT A WONDER THAT JESUS LOVES ME!

(Repeat CHORUS)
(Repeat BRIDGE)
(WHISPER FIRST VERSE AND CHORUS, BELT OUT LAST LINE)

From verses 1, 2, and 3 of Jesus Loves Me, by Anna B. Warner and William B. Bradbury, 1860, P.D.
From verses 2 and 3, Jesus Loves Even Me, by Philip P. Bliss, 1871, P.D.
