Loving shepherd of thy sheep.
Keep me, Lord, in safety keep;
Nothing can thy pow'r withstand,
None can pluck me from thy hand

Loving Shepherd, thou didst give
Thine own life that I might live;
May I love thee day by day,
Gladly thy sweet will obey.

Loving Shepherd, ever near,
Teach me still thy voice to hear,
Suffer not my step to stray
From the straight and narrow way.

Where thou leadest may I go,
Walking in thy steps below,
Then before thy Father's throne,
Jesus, clam me for thine own.
