1 Loving Shepherd of Thy sheep, Keep Thy lamb, in safety keep; Nothing can Thy power withstand; None can pluck me from Thy hand. 2 Loving Shepherd, ever near, Teach Thy lamb Thy voice to hear; Suffer not my steps to stray From the straight and narrow way. 3 Where Thou leadest I would go, Walking in Thy steps below, Till within the heavenly fold I my Shepherd shall behold.
