Much we need Thy tender care;
In Thy pleasant pastures feed us,
For our use Thy folds prepare:
Blessèd Jesus, Blessèd Jesus,
Thou hast bought us, Thine we are;
Blessèd Jesus, Blessèd 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:
Blessèd Jesus, Blessèd Jesus,
Hear, O hear us when we pray;
Blessèd Jesus, Blessèd 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 power to free:
Blessèd Jesus, Blessèd Jesus,
Early let us turn to Thee;
Blessèd Jesus, Blessèd Jesus,
Early let us turn to Thee.
4 Early let us seek Thy favor;
Early let us do Thy will;
Blessed Lord and only Saviour,
With Thy love our bosoms fill:
Blessèd Jesus, Blessèd Jesus,
Thou hast loved us, love us still;
Blessèd Jesus, Blessèd Jesus,
Thou hast loved us, love us still. Used With Tune: BRADBURY Text Sources: "Hymns for the Young" 1836
