Christian Hymns ‎#296

296. Jesus loves me, Jesus loves me

1 Jesus loves me, Jesus loves me,
For to save my soul He died;
He for me bore pain and sorrow,
Nailed hands and pierced side.

2 Jesus loves me, night and morning
Jesus hears the prayers I pray;
And He never, never leaves me,
When I work, or when I play.

3 Jesus loves me, and He watches
Over me with loving eye,
And He sends His holy angels
Safe to keep me till I die.

4 Jesus loves me,--O Lord Jesus,
Now I pray Thee, by Thy love,
Keep me ever pure and holy,
Till I come to Thee above!
