277. Shepherd of those sunlit mountains

1 Shepherd of those sunlit mountains,
Where eternal summer reigns,
Where Thy love, like flowing fountains,
Spreads bright glory o'er the plains!

2 In this wilderness of sorrow,
May Thy crook now guide our feet;
Through Thy words, oh, feed and guide us
To Thy truth most pure and sweet.

3 From Thy love like sheep we wander,
We have erred from Thy way,
Let Thy loving voice reclaim us,
Never let us from Thee stray.

4 Thou didst give Thy life to save us,
Loving Shepherd of Thy sheep;
To Thy fold again restore us,
All our hearts now claim and keep.

Amen.
