910. He Shall Gather the Lambs

1 “He shall feed His flock like a shepherd,
He shall gather the lambs with His arm.”
In His bosom they shall be ever
Safely shielded from all harm.

Refrain:
He shall gather the lambs,
Shall gather the lambs with His arm of love;
He shall gather the lambs,
Shall gather the lambs with His arm.

2 “He shall feed His flock like a shepherd”:
Oh, how precious the promise to me!
Shepherd kind, how blest the assurance
That the lambs are dear to Thee. [Refrain]

3 “He shall feed His flock like a shepherd”:
Oh, the depth of His wonderful love!
Lead us, guide us, wonderful Shepherd,
Safe into Thy fold above. [Refrain]
