Both John 15:9 and Ephesians 3:17b-19 could be cited for the recurring "Jesus loves me!"
Matthew 19:14 appears in both verses: "Little ones to Him belong" in the first and "Lets His little child come in" in the second. Titus 3:4-7 appears in the second verse, most clearly in the line "He has washed away my sin."
