SENIORS, JESUS LOVES ME
By Dr. Hoyt W. Allen, Jr.
The following article came to me recently and I contended that I should pass it on. It has been slightly edited and a conclusion added.
A New Version for people over forty is as follows:
Jesus loves me, this I know, Though my hair is white as snow.
Though my sight is growing dim, Still He bids me - trust in Him.
(Chorus)
Yes, Jesus loves me… Yes, loves me…
Yes, Jesus loves me, the Bible tells me so.
Though my steps are oh, so slow, With my hand in His I’ll go.
On through life, let come what may, He’ll be there to lead the way.
(Chorus)
Though I am no longer young, I have much which He's begun.
Let me serve Christ with a smile, Go with others the extra mile.
(Chorus)
When the nights are dark and long, In my heart He puts a song.
Telling me in words so clear, “Have no fear for I am near.”
(Chorus)
When my work on earth is done, And life’s victories have been done.
He will take me home above, Then I’ll understand His love.
(Chorus)
I love Jesus, does He know? Have I ever told Him so?
Jesus loves to hear me say, That I love Him everyday.
(Chorus)
Plainly, don’t get short changed. Let’s be ready to meet our Maker. The Bible (in Acts) teaches that to avoid hell and gain heaven - one must:
1) Believe In Jesus As Savior (16:31) 2) Repent Of Sins (17:30)
3) Confess Christ Audibly (8:37) 4) Be Baptized In Water (2:38)
5) Live A Christian Life (14:22) 6) Be Active In the Church (2:47)
