Walking into a church on Sunday
Just a kid never knowing that someday
Every worry I'd find
Would follow me all of my life
Nervous sitting there in the classroom
The teacher saw that I was brand new
I will never forget
Every word that she said
She said

Jesus loves you
No matter who you are
No matter where you go you're not alone
He's in your heart
You're a child of heaven
He's known you since the start
He made you in his image and he set your life apart
I pray you'll always remember
How much Jesus loves you

Now I struggle to believe that I'm worthy
'Cause I'm anything but deserving
All the voices of shame
From the mistakes that I've made
But a stranger who barely knew me
Told me there was still more to my story
This is not how it ends
And I heard what he said
When he said

Jesus loves you
No matter who you are
No matter where you go you're not alone
He's in your heart
You're a child of heaven
He's known you since the start
He made you in his image and he set your life apart
I pray you'll always remember
How much Jesus loves you

Walking into church on a Sunday
My daughter standing close beside me
All the things that I felt
She feels them as well
She's holding my hand so tightly
At the classroom door before I leave
I knelt down next to her
And whispered the very same words
I said

Jesus loves you
No matter who you are
No matter where you go you're not alone
He's in your heart
You're a child of heaven
He's known you since the start
He made you in his image and he set your life apart
I pray you'll always remember
How much Jesus loves you
