Melodious Sonnets ‎#44

44. Calling You and Me

1 ‘Tis the Shepherd’s voice we hear,
Calling you and me;
To the precious fold so dear,
Calling you and me.

Refrain:
Many times in ev’ry day
We can hear him in our play,
Calling to the better way,
Calling you and me.

2 He is ever watching nigh,
Calling you and me;
Looking down from yonder sky,
Calling you and me. [Refrain]

3 Where the sweetest flowers grow,
Calling you and me;
Where the brightest waters flow,
Calling you and me. [Refrain]

4 To his gentle, loving breast,
Calling you and me;
Where the lambs in safety rest,
Calling you and me. [Refrain]
