The Hymnal for Boys and Girls ‎#94

94. Jesus, Tender Shepherd, Hear Me

1 Jesus, tender Shepherd, hear me,
Bless thy little child to-night;
Through the darkness be thou near me;
Watch my sleep till morning light.

2 All this day Thy hand has led me,
And I thank thee for thy care;
Thou hast clothed me, warmed and fed me;
Listen to my evening prayer.

3 Let my sins be all forgiven,
Bless the friends I love so well;
Take us all at last to heaven,
Happy there with thee to dwell.

Amen.
