33. Jesus, Shepherd, Lead us

1 Jesus, Shepherd, lead Thy sheep
O’er life’s mountains, rough and steep;
From all worldliness withhold,
Guide us to the heav’nly fold.

Refrain:
Lead us where green pastures grow,
And where heav’nly waters flow;
Fit us, in this fold of love,
For the heav’nly fold above.

2 Should we wander from Thy side,
O’er the mountains dark and wide,
Seek us ere the wolf alarms,
Bring us back in Thine own arms. [Refrain]

3 We the sheep of Thine own choice,
May we know our Shepherd’s voice;
May we gladly leave our all,
Gladly follow at Thy call. [Refrain]

4 Thou hast saved us by Thy grace,
Help us to reflect Thy face;
Thou hast bought us, we are Thine,
May we in Thine image shine. [Refrain]
