| Jesus loves me this I know
|
| For the Bible tells me so All of us to Him belong
|
| We are so weak, but our God, He is strong
|
| As I sit and ponder I begin to wonder why
|
| God would send His only son upon this earth to die
|
| The conviction of my heart brings a tear to my eye
|
| And keep reality far from me, I just want to hide
|
| Christ endured such cruelty for a sinner like me He paid the price when He died for me on Calvary’s tree
|
| I once was blind, but now my eyes clearly see
|
| The sacrifice Christ became for you and me Because Jesus loves me, this I know
|
| For the Word of God tells me so All of us to Him belong, it’s true
|
| That we are weak, yet He is strong
|
| Yes, Jesus loves me Yes, Jesus loves me Yes, Jesus loves me For the Bible tells me so He will stand by like no other man
|
| Two sets of footprints within the sand
|
| But at times looking back one is all I see
|
| These are the days that He carried me He has proven His love time and again
|
| Pulled me from the fire, a result of my sin
|
| Compare where I am now to where I might have been
|
| Get on my knees just to praise Him again and again
|
| Thank you for loving me, it’s undeserved
|
| It doesn’t make sense, I mean the picture is blurred
|
| I’m the one that owes the debt, but you paid my price
|
| Now Jesus Christ, I owe you my life
|
| (repeat chorus)
|
| Now that I can see it, will the life I lead change
|
| It’s kinda strange we make decisions
|
| When they’re out of our range
|
| But in day to day living, we tend to give up On commitments that were made before life got tough
|
| With compromise in our eyes and pressure from peers
|
| We renig on a decision that we once held so dear
|
| But let’s try keep sight of this vision foreseen
|
| Hold tight day and night beyond the point of a dream
|
| Because Jesus loves me, this I know
|
| For the Word of God it tells me so Everyone of us to Him belong, it’s true
|
| We are so weak, yet He is so strong |
