Minnetonka Songs ‎#125e

125e. I am so glad

1 I am so glad that our Father in heaven
Tells of his love in the book he has given:
Wonderful things in the Bible I see:
This is the dearest, that Jesus loves me.

Chorus:
I am so glad that Jesus loves me,
Jesus loves me, Jesus loves me,
I am so glad that Jesus loves me,
Jesus loves even me.

2 Though I forget him, and wander away,
Still he doth love me wherever I stray;
Back to his dear loving arms would I flee,
When I remember that Jesus loves me. [Chorus]

3 Oh, if there's only one song I can sing,
When in his beauty I see the great King,
This shall my song in eternity be,
"Oh, what a wonder that Jesus loves me." [Chorus]

4 Jesus loves me, and I know I love him,
Love brought him down my poor soul to redeem;
Yes, it was love made him die on the tree,
Oh, I am certain that Jesus loves me. [Chorus]

5 If one should ask of me, how could I tell?
Glory to Jesus I know very well;
God's Holy Spirit with mine doth agree,
Constantly witnessing--Jesus loves me. [Chorus]

6 In this assurance I find sweetest rest,
Trusting in Jesus I know I am blest;
Satan dismayed, from my soul now doth flee,
When I just tell him that Jesus loves me. [Chorus]
