Israel’s Shepherd, guide me, feed me,
Through my pilgrimage below,
And beside the waters lead me,
Where thy flock rejoicing go.
Lest I err, thine aid disdaining,
And forsake thy sheltering fold,
Heedless of thy grace constraining,
In the strength of nature bold,-—
Lord, thy guardian presence ever,
Meekly kneeling, I implore;
I have found thee, and would never,
Never wander from thee more.
Come, my soul, temptation flying,
Arm thee for the strife within:
Jesus, thy Redeemer, dying,
Stamps an infamy on sin.
Yield, my heart, no longer hardened;
Rouse thy every latent power:
Cleansed, and washed, and freely pardoned,
Go in peace, and sin no more.
---Alternative verses---
Lord, thy guardian presence ever,
Meekly kneeling, I implore;
Now thy grace hath found me, never
Would I wander from thee more.
