The King of Love My Shepherd is

Author: Henry W. Baker, 1821-1877 Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 685 hymnals Topics: Jesus, Our Shepherd Lyrics: 1 The King of love my Shepherd is, Whose goodness faileth never; I nothing lack if I am His. And He is mine forever. 2 Where streams of living water flow, My ransomed soul He leadeth, And, where the verdant pastures grow, With food celestial feedeth. 3 Perverse and foolish oft I strayed, But yet in love He sought me, And on His shoulder gently laid, And home, rejoicing, brought me. 4 In death's dark vale I fear no ill, With Thee, dear Lord, beside me; Thy rod and staff my comfort still; Thy cross before to guide me. 5 And so through all the length of days Thy goodness faileth never: Good Shepherd, may I sing Thy praise Within Thy house for ever. AMEN. Used With Tune: DOMINUS REGIT ME

Who sends his heav’n-descended peace To dwell with man below."

Still follow my steps till I meet thee above; I seek, by the path which my forefathers trod Through the land of their sojourn, thy kingdom of love. Scripture: Psalm 23:1 Used With Tune: GOSHEN
