Jesus Love Me (for seniors)

I have attended 3 funerals for elderly people in the last month; plus one for a 60 year old man. Someone sent me an e-mail and enclosed this song of "Jesus Love Me for Seniors". I think it is beautiful and wanted to share it..................
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, Jesus loves me.
Yes, Jesus love me the Bible tells me so.
Though my steps are oh, so slow
with my hands with Him I'll go
on through life, let come what may,
He'll be there to lead the way.
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".
When my work on earth is done
and life's victories have been won.
He will take me home above,
then I'll understand His love.
I love Jesus, does He know?
Have I ever told Him so?
Jesus loves to hear me say,
That I love Him every day.
