Author: Hugh Stowell Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11559 Meter: 11.11 D First Line: Jesus is our shepherd, wiping every tear Lyrics: 1 Jesus is our shepherd, wiping every tear;
Folded in His bosom, what have we to fear?
Only let us follow whither He doth lead,
To the thirsty desert or the dewy mead.
2 Jesus is our shepherd; well we know His voice;
How its gentle whisper makes our heart rejoice!
Even when He chideth, tender is His tone;
None but He shall guide us; we are His alone.
3 Jesus is our shepherd; for the sheep He bled;
Every lamb is sprinkled with the blood He shed;
Then on earth He setteth His own secret sign;
"They that have My Spirit, these," saith He, "are Mine."
4 Jesus is our shepherd; guarded by His arm,
Though the wolves may raven, none can do us harm;
When we tread death’s valley, dark with fearful gloom,
We will fear no evil, victors o’er the tomb. Languages: Latin Tune Title: GOSHEN
