Lyrics
Faithful Shepherd, feed me
in the pastures green;
Faithful Shepherd, lead me
where thy steps are seen.
Hold me fast, and guide me
in the narrow way;
so, with thee beside me,
I shall never stray.
Daily bring me nearer
to the heavenly shore;
may thy love grow dearer,
may I love thee more.
Hallow every pleasure,
sanctify my pain;
be thyself my treasure,
though none else I gain.
Give me joy or sadness,
this be all my care,
that eternal gladness
I with thee may share.
Day by day prepare me
as thou seest best,
then let angels bear me
to thy promised rest.
