- 1Ssvior, who Thy flock art feeding
- With the shepherd's kindest care,
- All the feeble gently leading,
- While the lambs Thy bosom share.
- 2Now, these little ones receiving,
- Fold them in Thy gracious arm;
- There, we know, Thy word believing,
- Only there secure from harm.
- 3Never, from Thy pasture roving,
- Let them be the Lion's prey;
- Let Thy tenderness, so loving,
- Keep them through life's dangerous way.
- 4Then within Thy fold eternal
- Let them find a resting-place:
- Feed in pastures ever vernal,
- Drink the rivers of Thy grace.
