Virtual Hymns Singles | Jesus loves me (Ndebele)

Song composed by Anna Bartlett Warner. She wrote this beloved children's hymn text in 1859. It was published in Say and Seal (1860), a novel Warner wrote in collaboration with her sister Susan Both Anna and Susan Warner's writings are marked by what some judge to be "undistinguished religious sentimentality." But those who are critical of the text's simplicity may do well to remember what the great theologian Karl Barth once said when asked about his most profound theological discovery: Jesus loves me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so.
