"Jesus Loves Even Me"

At church this morning, we sang the hymn “Jesus Loves Even Me.”  I especially liked the following stanza:

“Though I forget Him, and wander away,
“Still He doth love me wherever I stray;
“Back to His dear loving arms I do flee,
“When I remember that Jesus loves me.”

A number of Christians may criticize that hymn for being too individualistic.  I happen to like it, though.  I think it’s important to remember that God loves each and every one of us.  That doesn’t preclude the importance of helping other people, though.
