Tune Title: JESUS LOVES ME
Composer: William B. Bradbury
English:
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.
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. (Refrain)
3 Jesus loves me! He will stay
close beside me all the way;
he's prepared a home for me,
and some day his face I'll see. (Refrain)
Spanish:
[Refrain:] Cristo me ama, Cristo me ama,
Cristo me ama, La Biblia dice así.
