Shepherd, who lead'st with tender care,
The feeble of thy fold,—
Who dost regard the weakest there,
And all their steps uphold;
This little helpless lamb receive,
In mercy, to thy breast;
And let parental fondness leave
It safely there to rest.
Surround it with thy guardian love.
Thro' all life's dang'rous way;
Ne'er let it from thy pastures rove,
Nor be the lion's prey.
In thine eternal, heav'nly home,
Oh, let it find a place;
And be, when life and toils arc done,
A trophy of thy grace.
