Saviour, like a shepherd lead us,
Much we need Thy tender care;
In Thy pleasant pastures feed us,
For our use Thy folds prepare:
|:Blessed Jesus, Blessed Jesus,
Thou hast bought us, Thine we are;
:|
We are Thine - do Thou befriend us,
Be the Guardian of our way;
Keep Thy flock, from sin defend us,
Seek us when we go astray:
|:Blessed Jesus, Blessed Jesus,
Hear, O hear us when we pray
:|
Thou hast promised to receive us,
Poor and sinful though we be;
Thou hast mercy to relieve us,
Grace to cleanse and power to free:
|:Blessed Jesus, Blessed Jesus,
Let us early turn to Thee
:|
Early let is seek Thy favour,
Early let us learn Thy will;
Do thou, Lord, our only Saviour,
With Thy love our bosoms fill:
|:Blessed Jesus, Blessed Jesus,
Thou hast loved us, love us still
