O Thou Who the Shepherd of Israel art




O Thou Who the Shepherd
of Israel art,
Give ear to our pray’r
and Thy favor impart;
Thou Leader of Joseph,
Thou Guide of his way,
’Mid cherubim dwelling,
Thy glory display.


In Ephraim’s, Manasseh’s
and Benjamin’s sight,
O come Thou and save us;
awake in Thy might.
O God, give us favor,
restore to Thy grace;
And then we shall live
in the light of Thy face.


From Egypt’s dark border
a vine Thou didst take;
Destroying the heathen
didst room for it make.
Where planted it grew
at Thy sov’reign command,
With roots deeply set
and boughs filling the land.


The axe hews it down;
it is burned in the fire;
They perish, rebuked in Thy terrible ire.
O lay then Thy hand on
the Man of Thy might,
The Son of Man made to stand
strong in Thy sight.


No more shall we wander,
delighting in shame;
Revive us, O Lord,
we will call on Thy Name.
O Lord God of Hosts,
us restore to Thy grace,
And then we shall live
in the light of Thy face.
