To Thy pastures fair and large,
Heavenly Shepherd, lead Thy charge,
And my couch with tenderest care,
’Mid the springing grass prepare.
When I faint with summer’s heat,
Thou shalt guide my weary feet
To the streams that still and slow
Through the verdant meadows flow.
Safe the dreary vale I tread
By the shades of death o’erspread,
With Thy rod and staff supplied,
This my guard, and that my guide.
Thou my plenteous board has spread ,
Thou with oil refreshed my head;
Filled by thee my cup o’erflows,
For thy love no limit knows.
Constant to my latest end
Thou my footsteps shall attend;
And shalt bid Thy hallowed dome
Yield me an eternal home.
---Alternative verses---
Constant to my latest end
Thou my footsteps shall attend;
Thou shalt bid Thy hallowed dome
Yield me an eternal home.
