Come, dearest Lord, and feed thy sheep

Author: William Mason Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #229 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Come, dearest Lord, and feed thy sheep, On this sweet day of rest; O bless this flock, and make this fold Enjoy a heavenly rest. 2 Welcome and precious to my soul Are these sweet days of love, But what a Sabbath shall I keep When I shall rest above! 3 I come, I wait, I hear, I pray; Thy footsteps, Lord, I trace; Here, in thine own appointed way, I wait to see thy face. 4 These are the sweet and precious days On which my Lord I've seen; And oft, when feasting on his word, In raptures I have been. 5 O, if my soul, when Christ appears, In this sweet frame be found, I'll clasp my Saviour in my arms, And leave this earthly ground!
