43. Shepherd With Thy Tend'rest Love

1 Shepherd with Thy tend’rest love
Guide me to Thy fold above;
Let me hear Thy gentle voice,
More and more in Thee rejoice;
From Thy fullness grace receive,
Ever in Thy spirit live.

2 Fill’d by Thee my cup o’erflows,
For Thy love no limit knows;
Guardian angel ever nigh,
Lead and draw me soul on high;
Constant to my latest end,
Thou my footsteps will attend.

3 Jesus with Thy presence blest,
Death is life, and life is rest;
Guide me while I draw my breath,
Guard me thro’ the gate of death;
And at last, oh, let me stand,
With the blest at Thy right hand.
