I Know That My Savior Loves Me

The Primary theme for 2010 is "I Know My Savior Lives". In primary we have been learning a new song that goes along with this theme. It is "I Know That My Savior Loves Me". I don't know why, but every time I hear those sweet children's voices singing this song it brings tears to my eyes. It is such a beautiful testimony of our Savior and His love for each one of us.

Today as I was driving around trying to accomplish some mundane tasks this song kept running through my mind over and over again. I finally decided to fully acknowledge my thoughts and began singing it again and again. It brought a special peace into my day.

Primary songs are one of my favorite parts of serving in Primary. I love having my head and my heart full of these uplifting and comforting songs. How wonderful to be reminded on a frequent basis of the love that my Savior has for me and so many other important gospel principles reinforced by Primary music.

These are the words to the song "I Know That My Savior Loves Me" or you can go here to watch a video with the words and music.

A long time ago in a beautiful place
Children were gathered round Jesus
He blessed and taught as they felt of His love
Each saw the tears on his face.
The love that he felt for His little ones
I know He feels for me.
I did not touch Him or sit on His knee
Yet Jesus is real to me.

I know He lives
I will follow faithfully.
My heart I give to Him.
I know that my Savior loves me.

Now I am here in a beautiful place
Learning the teachings of Jesus.
Parents and teachers will help guide the way
Lighting my path every day.
Wrapped in the arms of my Savior's love
I feel His gentle touch.
Living each day I will follow His way
Home to my Father above.

These words would have been very helpful in my car today because I kind of just made up the words where I wasn't sure and now that I have sung it so many times with a few wrong words and phrases it will be harder to actually learn it correctly. Oh well, the message is still the same regardless.
