Williston Hymns ‎#171

171. Jesus Loves Me Still

1 When the days are dark and dreary,
When my way winds up the hill,
Joyfully my heart keeps singing:
“Jesus loves me, loves me still.”

Refrain:
Jesus loves me, yes, He loves me,
All my heart with joy doth thrill;
Praise His name! I’ll sing in glory:
“Jesus loves me, loves me still.”

2 Tho’ so oft from Him I wander,
Seeking not to do His will,
Spite of all my sinful straying,
Jesus loves me, loves me still. [Refrain]

3 Goodness I have none to bring Him,
Yet I would His plan fulfill;
Well I know He’ll not forsake me,—
Jesus loves me, loves me still. [Refrain]
