"Jesus Loves Me" is a Christian hymn written by Anna Bartlett Warner (1827–1915).〔(Biography and hymns of Anna Bartlett Warner (1827-1915) ).〕 The lyrics first appeared as a poem in the context of an 1860 novel called ''Say and Seal'', written by her older sister Susan Warner (1819–1885), in which the words were spoken as a comforting poem to a dying child. The tune was added in 1862 by William Batchelder Bradbury (1816–1868). Along with his tune, Bradbury added his own chorus "Yes, Jesus loves me, Yes, Jesus Loves me..." After publication as a song it became one of the most popular Christian hymns in churches around the world, especially among children. ==Poem by Anna Bartlett Warner== As originally published in 1860, it appeared in three stanzas, as follows: Jesus loves me—this I know, For the Bible tells me so; Little ones to him belong,— They are weak, but he is strong. Jesus loves me—loves me still, Though I'm very weak and ill; From his shining throne on high, Comes to watch me where I lie. Jesus loves me—he will stay, Close beside me all the way. Then his little child will take, Up to heaven for his dear sake.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jesus Loves Me」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
