Introduction

“Jesus Loves Me” is one of those timeless melodies that feels like a warm hug for your soul. Simple, yet so profoundly meaningful, this song has been a source of comfort and assurance for generations. It’s not just a children’s hymn; it’s a message that resonates with people of all ages, reminding us of an unconditional love that we don’t have to earn.

The beauty of “Jesus Loves Me” lies in its simplicity. Written in 1860 by Anna Bartlett Warner as part of a novel, the lyrics were later paired with a melody by William Bradbury, turning it into the beloved hymn we know today. The refrain, “Yes, Jesus loves me,” is like a gentle whisper of reassurance—a truth that transcends circumstances and time. Whether you first heard it sung in Sunday school, a church choir, or at home with your family, the song has a way of anchoring your heart in peace.

What makes this hymn even more special is its universal appeal. It’s often one of the first songs taught to children, making it a foundational memory for many. Yet, its message grows deeper as we experience life’s joys and challenges. It speaks to the brokenhearted, the weary, and even the joyful, reminding us all that we are seen, known, and cherished.

“Jesus Loves Me” is more than just a hymn—it’s a gentle reminder that love is at the core of faith. It’s a song you can return to in moments of doubt or gratitude, and it never fails to lift your spirits. It’s a melody of hope that says, “No matter what, you are loved.”

Lyrics

Jesus loves me this I know
For the Bible tells me so
Little ones to Him belong
They are weak but He is strong
Jesus loves me this I know
For the Bible tells me so
Little ones to Him belong
They are weak but He is strong
Yes, Jesus loves me
Yes, Jesus loves me
Yes, Jesus loves me
The Bible tells me so
Jesus loves me still today
Walking with me on my way
Wanting as a friend to give
Light and love to all who live
Yes, Jesus loves me
Yes, Jesus loves me
Oh, yes, Jesus loves me
The Bible tells me so
Here we go
Jesus loves me He will stay
Close besides me all the way
Thou has bled and died for me
I will henceforth live for Thee
Yes, Jesus loves me
Oh, yes, Jesus loves me
Yes Jesus loves me
The Bible tells me so
The Bible tells me so
