To Thee, my Shepherd and my Lord

Verse 1

To thee, my Shepherd and my Lord, A grateful song I'll raise; O, let the humblest of thy flock Attempt to speak thy praise.

Verse 2

My life, my joy, my hope, I owe To thine amazing love; Ten thousand thousand comforts here, And nobler bliss above.

Verse 3

To thee my trembling spirit flies, With sin and grief oppressed; Thy gentle voice dispels my fears, And lulls my cares to rest.

Verse 4

Lead on, dear Shepherd! led by thee, No evil shall I fear; Soon shall I reach thy fold above, And praise thee better there.
