Jesus Loves Me: Celebrating the Profound Truths of a Simple Hymn

by Calvin Miller

There are few songs more recognizable to the Christian believer than Anna B. Warner's beloved hymn, "Jesus Loves Me." The simple yet eloquent lyric states the basic elements of faith both plainly and succinctly; within the three title words are found the tenets of Christianity. Now, by examining this beloved hymn verse by verse, including the little known second and third stanzas, Calvin Miller seeks to remind believers of the clear and abiding truths found within this child's rhyme. In doing so, he establishes the song as a creed by which busy Christian adults can live and grow.

Simple yet infinitely deep. Jesus Loves Me holds truth in the lyrics that we have been singing since childhood. As it should be. Jesus Loves Me, this I know.

This was a great book for my heart, at a time when my heart needed some reassurance.
