22. Jesus, tender Shepherd, hear me

1 Jesus, tender Shepherd, hear me;
Bless Thy little lamb tonight;
Thro' the darkness be Thou near me:
Keep me safe till morning light.

2 All this day Thy hand has led me,
And I thank Thee for Thy care;
Thou hast warmed me, clothed 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.
