standing in the shadow of the cherry blossom tree,
watching as the sun comes up and shines its face on me.
remember how we used to play and run around so free,
and never once i had to ask i knew that you loved me.
and i can hear your voice in the wind,
with memories of all ive ever been.

Mama always told me that Jesus loved me so,
she'd say that when i grow up id know which way to go,
and now i see that all she said was true,
my life would be incomplete without you.
im livin in the shadow of your face
and knowin in my heart that theres no better place

Jesus loves me this i know,
for the Bible tells me so,
little ones to Him belong,
they are weak but He is strong.

Daddy took me on his knee,
he said your love would set me free,
and through your eyes i would see a better me.
and i could live a thousand years,
and youd still take away my fear,
and i would know that you are here,
you are here.
and i can feel your tears in the rain,
i know you came to take away my pain

yes, Jesus loves me
yes, Jesus loves me
yes, Jesus loves me
the Bible tells me so.
