Author: Thomas Kelly Hymnal: Evangelistic Songs #56 (1927) Hymnal Title: Evangelistic Songs Lyrics: 1 We’ll sing of the Shepherd that died,
That died for the sake of the flock;
His love to the utmost was tried,
But firmly endured as a rock.
2 When blood from a victim must flow,
This shepherd by pity was led
To stand between us and the foe,
And willingly died in our stead.
3 Our song, then, forever shall be
Of the Shepherd who gave Himself thus;
No subject’s so glorious as He,
No theme so affecting to us.
4 Of Him and His love will we sing,
His praises our tongues shall employ,
Till heavenly anthems we bring
In yonder bright regions of joy. Languages: English Tune Title: [We’ll sing of the Shepherd that died]
