JESUS I LOVE YOU!

"Jesus I Love You!" is a deeply personal song of surrender and devotion, perfectly suited for Communion or moments of Eucharistic Adoration. Abraham Uke sets a tone of quiet intimacy right from the opening refrain, where the choir voices a simple but profound offering: "All I have is yours, yours I am! Yours I want to be." It is the kind of piece that invites the congregation to close their eyes and make the prayer their own after receiving the Eucharist.

The verses draw on familiar, comforting prayers of the Church, weaving them into a gentle choral arrangement. From the act of contrition in the first verse to the centurion’s humble plea in the fourth—"I am not worthy, only say a word and my soul shall live"—the lyrics walk us through repentance, belief, and ultimate trust in Christ's sacrifice at Calvary.

When rehearsing this piece, choirs will find that the beauty lies in its earnestness. The melody does not need to be forced; it flows naturally as a sincere declaration of faith. Singing "Do with me whatever you wilt" requires a gentle, unified blend, allowing the profound meaning of the words to resonate through the church.
