Representative Text

1 To thy pastures fair and large,
Heavenly Shepherd, lead thy charge,
And my couch, with tenderest care,
"Mid the springing grass prepare.

2 When I faint with summer's heat,
Thou shalt guide my weary feet
To the streams that still and slow,
Through the verdant meadows flow.

3 Safe the dreary vale I trade,
By the shades of death o'erspread,
With thy rod and staff supplied,
This my guard and that my guide.

4 Constant to my latest end,
Thou my footsteps shall attend;
And shalt bid thy hallowed dome
Yield me an eternal home.
