Yes! Jesus Loves Me (subtitled Guitar Hymns) is an album by American fingerstyle guitarist and composer John Fahey, released in 1980. It was Fahey's poorest selling release.
Music critic Mark Allan praised the album, noting that "Fahey weaves a spell with his precise picking and odd tunings... if you unplug the phone, turn off the TV and give it the chance, this music might briefly remove you from your everyday existence."
From his review for the UK-based Record Collector, critic Jason Draper gave the album 4 stars, stating "... it’s a concise, stately piece of work, Fahey tapping into blues, classical and even bordering on ragtime guitar... it transcends time and spans agee... grand and full enough to fill the deepest chamber and the grandest dining room, yet intimate enough for a fireside sherry when the kids have gone to bed. If you can’t be touched by this, you can’t be touched by anything."
