Lyrics
Chorus 1
Yes Jesus loves me
Yes Jesus loves me
Yes Jesus loves me
The Bible tells me so
Verse 1
There's a song I started singing
As a child in Sunday school
It made me feel so very special
I loved it then oh and I still do
Verse 2
Thirty kids in an old church basement
One piano out of tune
Missus Brown would ask for fav'rites
And when I'd raise my hand
She already knew
Verse 3
The melody is very simple
And the words are simple too
But what makes this song so special
Is just knowing that it's all so true
Chorus 2
The sweetest song this side of heaven
Sung by children young and old
The sweetest song this side of heaven
Is Jesus loves me this I know
