I was living down in the valley Couldn't handle my own affairs When Jesus came unto me And said, do you know who really cares? Then a feeling came over me From my head down to my feet That’s how I know that Jesus cares for me Jesus, oh yes, Jesus cares for me He's my father, my mother, my sister, and my brother He's everything that no one else could be Now the light of his love is all that I can see That’s how I know that Jesus cares for me The very moment when he touched me I felt my sins depart He has given me the answers To the burdens of my heart He is molding and making my life what it should be That's how I know that Jesus cares for me Jesus, oh yes, Jesus cares for me He's my father, my mother, my sister, and my brother He's everything that no one else could be Now the light of his love is all that I can see That's how I know that Jesus cares for me That's how I know that Jesus cares for me
