Savior, like a shepherd lead us,

Much we need thy tender care;

In thy pleasant pastures feed us;

For our use thy folds prepare:

Blessèd Jesus!

Thou hast bought us, thine we are.

Thou hast promised to receive us,

Poor and sinful though we be;

Thou hast mercy to relieve us,

Grace to cleanse, and power to free:

Blessèd Jesus!

Let us early turn to thee.

Early let us seek thy favour,

Early let us learn thy will;

Do thou, Lord, our only Savior,

With thy love our bosoms fill:

Blessèd Jesus!

Thou hast loved us: love us still.

Amen.
