Refrain: He shall feed his flock like a Shepherd, And gather the lambs with his arm; He shall carry them in his bosom, And tenderly shield them from harm. 2 O Jesus, our merciful Shepherd, We hear thy soft calling today; Lead us in thy fair, blooming pasture, And keep us from wand'ring away. [Refrain] 3 We will drink of the clear, springing fountains, And rest in the arms of his love, Til Jesus, dear Saviour, shall guide us To evergreen pastures above.
