David had a lot of sins, but he was a good man in his heart

[jamieostrowski]

Very creative way to weave his song into Jesus Loves Me.

[authoritarianismandrevolut]

I was old and lonely
Living, in the dark
No light, no comfort
That anyone would impart
Wishing I was dead,
No longer here
Until I heard a little girl,
Who stood beside my chair

Jesus loves me! This I know, 
For the Bible tells me so;
Little ones to Him belong;
They are weak, but He is strong.

Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
The Bible tells me so.

My heart is open
To hear this little girl sing
The shadows of the winter time
Are now turned to spring
I said oh, little girl
What makes you so cheer?
She said,
It’s because the lord loves me
And I know his coming is near

Jesus loves me! This I know, 
For the Bible tells me so;
Little ones to Him belong;
They are weak, but He is strong.

Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
The Bible tells me so.

I will sing unto the LORD
As long as I live
I will sing praise
To my god while I’m at my feet
My meditation of him
Shall be sweet
I will be glad, I will be glad
In the LORD

Bless the LORD
O, my Soul
Praised be the LORD
Bless the Lord
O, my Soul
Praised be the LORD

Thank you for sharing this beautiful music. Gone but never forgotten, the Lord shall remember.

I love the beginning part (and the whole song)

[elliotduckett]

His music is underrated. He recorded this in a compound, yet it is better than a lot of other music out there. Not wanting to listen to David Koresh is like not wanting to listen to the Red Army Choir.

[rodneykuhn]

He was and always will be an unfinished talent.

[rodneykuhn]

God created Koresh. Am I going to Hell for listening to his music or sermons? Of course not. People need to like.. chill out

[AidenRKrone]

The evil men responsible for the Waco tragedy will be brought to the Light.

The little girl singing might be Michele Jones.
