1 John 2:16-17<\/strong><\/p>\n

“For everything in the world\u2014the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does\u2014comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Philip Bliss was a gifted hymn writer. He wrote many well known hymns during his short life of 38 years. Both he and his wife were tragically killed in a train accident December 29, 1876.<\/p>\n

In June, 1870, after listening to the chorus of the hymn “Oh, How I Love Jesus,” Philip Bliss wondered if he had emphasized more on his<\/em> love of Jesus and had neglected to write of Jesus’ love for him<\/em>. That led him to write the hymn, “Jesus Loves Even Me.”<\/p>\n

\n

“Jesus Loves Even Me!<\/em><\/strong><\/a>“<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I am so glad that our Father in Heav’n;
\nTells of His love in the Book He has giv’n;
\nWonderful things in the Bible I see;
\nThis is the dearest, that Jesus loves me.<\/em><\/p>\n

Refrain:<\/strong> I am so glad that Jesus loves me,
\nJesus loves me, Jesus loves me.
\nI am so glad that Jesus loves me,
\nJesus loves even me.<\/em><\/p>\n

Though I forget Him, and wander away;
\nStill He doth love me wherever I stray;
\nBack to His dear loving arms I do flee;
\nWhen I remember that Jesus loves me.<\/em><\/p>\n

Refrain: <\/strong>I am so glad that Jesus loves me,
\nJesus loves me, Jesus loves me.
\nI am so glad that Jesus loves me,
\nJesus loves even me.<\/em><\/p>\n

Oh, if there’s only one song I can sing;
\nWhen in His beauty I see the great King,
\nThis shall my song through eternity be,
\n“Oh, what a wonder that Jesus loves me!”<\/em><\/p>\n

Refrain: <\/strong>I am so glad that Jesus loves me,
\nJesus loves me, Jesus loves me.
\nI am so glad that Jesus loves me,
\nJesus loves even me.<\/em><\/p>\n

Jesus loves me, and I know I love Him;
\nLove brought Him down my poor soul to redeem;
\nYes, it was love made Him die on the tree;
\nOh, I am certain that Jesus loves me!<\/em><\/p>\n

Refrain:<\/strong> I am so glad that Jesus loves me,
\nJesus loves me, Jesus loves me.
\nI am so glad that Jesus loves me,
\nJesus loves even me.<\/em><\/p>\n

If one should ask of me, how can I tell?
\nGlory to Jesus, I know very well!
\nGod’s Holy Spirit with mine doth agree;
\nConstantly witnessing Jesus loves me.<\/em><\/p>\n

Refrain: <\/strong>I am so glad that Jesus loves me,
\nJesus loves me, Jesus loves me.
\nI am so glad that Jesus loves me,
\nJesus loves even me.<\/em><\/p>\n

In this assurance I find sweetest rest;
\nTrusting in Jesus, I know I am blessed;
\nSatan, dismayed, from my soul now doth flee;
\nWhen I just tell him that Jesus loves me.<\/em><\/p>\n

Refrain:<\/strong> I am so glad that Jesus loves me,
\nJesus loves me, Jesus loves me.
\nI am so glad that Jesus loves me,
\nJesus loves even me.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
