538. Savior, Like a Shepherd Lead Us (Pastorános, Jesús amante)

1 Savior, like a shepherd lead us,
Much we need thy tender care;
In thy pleasant pastures feed us,
For our use thy folds prepare:
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
Thou hast bought us, thine we are;
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
Thou hast bought us, thine we are.

2 We are thine; do thou befriend us;
Be the guardian of our way;
Keep thy flock, from sin defend us,
Seek us when we go astray:
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
Hear your children when they pray;
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
Hear your children when we pray.

3 Thou hast promised to receive us,
Poor and sinful though we be;
Thou hast mercy to relieve us,
Grace to cleanse, and pow'r to free:
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
Early let us turn to thee;
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
Early let us turn to thee.

4 Early let us seek thy favor;
Early let us do thy will;
Blessed Lord and only Savior,
With thy love our spirits fill:
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
Thou hast loved us, love us still;
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
Thou hast loved us, love us still.

1 Pastoréanos, Jesús amante,
cuida, oh Señor, tu grey;
tu sustento placentero dale
al redil, y justa ley.
Alta ciencia, providencia,
tuyas para nuestro bien;
bendecido, Rey ungido,
a santificarnos ven.

2 Tu misión divina es a tus hijos
dar salud y santidad;
a pesar de ser tan pecadores,
no nos has de desechar.
Comunicas dotes ricas
al que implora tu perdón;
salvadora Luz, que mora
en el nuevo corazón.

3 Tú prometes recibirnos,
y guiarnos en amor;
con tu gracia salvadora
nos ofreces tu perdón.
Nos levantas nos restauras,
y nos libras del pesar;
y contigo fiel amigo
tú nos abres para entrar.

4 Como ovejas acudimos
a rendirte adoración;
oye nuestras peticiones
y concédenos perdón.
Te alabamos y adoramos
como el Rey de la creación;
Dios glorioso, bondadoso,
vive en nestro corazón.
