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
|
|
(chorus)
|
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
|
|
(repeat chorus)
