Our Great Redeemer's Praise ‎#130

130. Savior, Like a Shepherd Lead Us

1 Savior, like a shepherd lead us,
much we need Thy tender care;
in Thy pleasant pastures feed us,
for our use Thy folds prepare.
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
Thou hast bought us, Thine we are;
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
Thou hast bought us, Thine we are.

2 We are Thine, do Thou befriend us,
be the guardian of our way;
keep Thy flock, from sin defend us,
seek us when we go astray.
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
hear, O hear us when we pray;
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
hear, O hear us when we pray.

3 Thou hast promised to receive us,
poor and sinful though we be;
Thou hast mercy to relieve us,
grace to cleanse, and pow'r to free.
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
early let us turn to Thee;
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
early let us turn to Thee.

4 Early let us seek Thy favor,
early let us do Thy will;
blessed Lord and only Savior,
with Thy love our bosoms fill.
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
Thou hast loved us, love us still;
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus,
Thou hast loved us, love us still.
