Lyrics
Jesus loves me, this I know,
Understanding that Jesus has affection for me
For the Bible tells me so
My confidence in Jesus' love is rooted in the teachings of the Bible
Little ones, to Him, belong,
Children are part of Jesus' domain
They are weak, but He is strong
They lack strength, but Jesus possesses immense strength
Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me
A reaffirmation of Jesus' love for me
Yes, Jesus loves me! The Bible tells me so
Reinforcing the fact of Jesus' love for me as stated in the Bible
Jesus loves me, He who died,
Jesus' love is demonstrated through His sacrifice
Heaven's gate to open wide
His sacrifice facilitates access to heaven
He will wash away my sin!
Jesus will cleanse my sins
Let His little child come in
Jesus welcomes me as His child
Yes, Jesus loves me!
Reiteration of Jesus' love for me
Yes, Jesus loves me!
-Yes, Jesus loves me!
-The Bible tells me so! The Bible tells me so
Backing the statement of Jesus' love with the Bible's affirmation
Jesus loves me, this I know.
Reaffirmation of my belief in Jesus' love for me
As He loved so long ago
Comparing Jesus' historical love to present times
Placing children on His knee,
Depiction of Jesus welcoming and embracing children
Saying, let them come to me
Invitation for children to be close to Jesus
Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me
Repeated assurance of Jesus' love based on the Bible
Yes, Jesus loves me! The Bible tells me so
-He loves me, Jesus, He loves me, yeah!
Reiteration of Jesus' love for me
He loves me, Jesus, He loves me, yeah
-Jesus loves me all the way!
Affirmation of continuous, unwavering love from Jesus
I can feel it every day
Sensing Jesus' love as a constant presence in daily life
We are under His command,
Recognition of being under Jesus' guidance
Sheltered by His mighty hand
Protected and supported by Jesus' immense power
Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me
Repetitive affirmation of Jesus' love as guided by the Bible
Yes, Jesus loves me!
-The Bible tells me so
-The Bible tells me so
-He loves me, Jesus, He loves me, yeah
Reiteration of Jesus' love for me
He loves me, Jesus, He loves me, yeah
-He loves me, Jesus, He loves me, yeah
-He loves me, Jesus, He loves me, yeah
-Jesus loves me, this I know,
Restating my acknowledgment of Jesus' love based on Biblical teachings
For the Bible tells me so
Confirmation of my faith in Jesus' love as per the Bible
Little ones to Him belong,
Reiteration that children are part of Jesus' realm
They are weak, but He is strong
Highlighting the contrast between children's weakness and Jesus' strength
Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me
Repeated assertion of Jesus' love supported by the Bible
Yes, Jesus loves me! The Bible tells me so
-Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me
Reaffirmation of Jesus' love based on Biblical teachings
Yes, Jesus loves me!
-The Bible tells me so
-The Bible tells me so
Reiterating the Biblical support for Jesus' love
