The Evergreen ‎#33

33. I Love Jesus

1 I love Jesus and Jesus loves me,
He my tender Shepherd will be;
He will feed me in pastures fair,
He will guard and protect me there.

Chorus:
I love Jesus and Jesus loves me,
Oh. how precious, how precious is He!
I love Jesus and Jesus loves me,
None so precious, so precious as He.

2 I love Jesus and Jesus loves me,
He my loving Saviour will be;
He will save me from all my sin,
Cleanse me, and keep me pure and clean. [Chorus]

3 I love Jesus and Jesus loves me,
He my friend forever will be;
He will bless me with His pure love,
Take me up to his home above. [Chorus]
