Jesus, friend of little children, be a friend to me; take my hand and ever keep me close to thee.
Teach me how to grow in goodness daily as I grow; thou hast been a child, and surely thou dost know.
Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me! The Bible tells me so.
Never leave me nor forsake me, ever be my friend, for I need thee from life's dawning to its end.
