How Great the Bliss to Be a Sheep of Jesus
Author: Christian Ignatius La Trobe, 1758-1836; Johann Jakob Rambach, 1693-1735 Appears in 11 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1 How great the bliss to be a sheep of Jesus,
And to be guided by His shepherd-staff!
Earth’s greatest honors, howsoe’er they please us,
Compared to this are vain and empty chaff.
Yea, what this world can never give,
May, through the Shepherd’s grace, each needy sheep receive.
2 Here is a pasture, rich and never failing,
Here living waters in abundance flow;
None can conceive the grace with tem prevailing,
Who Jesus’ shepherd voice obey and know;
He banishes all fear and strife,
And leads them gently on to everlasting life.
3 Whoe’er would spend his days in lasting pleasure
Must come to Christ and join His flock with speed;
Here is a feast prepared, rich beyond measure,
The world meanwhile on empty husks must feed.
Those souls may share in every good
Whose Shepherd doth possess the treasuries of God. Topics: The Life in Christ Joy and Peace in Believing Used With Tune: AGNUS CHRISTI
