Jesus, tender Shepherd, hear me

Author: Miss Mary Lundie Duncan, 1814-1840 Hymnal: The Sunday School Hymnal #301 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, tender Shepherd, hear me; Bless Thy little lamb tonight; Through the darkness be Thou near me; Watch my sleep till morning light. Tender Shepherd, tender Shepherd, Keep me safe till morning light; Through the darkness be Thou near me; Watch my sleep 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. Tender Shepherd, tender Shepherd, Keep me safe till morning light; Thou hast warmed me, clothed and fed me, Listen to my evening prayer. 3 May my sins be all forgiven, Bless the friends I love so well; Take us, Lord, at last, to heaven, Happy there with Thee to dwell. Tender Shepherd, tender Shepherd, Keep me safe till morning light; Take us, Lord, at last, to heaven, Happy there with Thee to dwell.

John Bacchus Dykes

1823 - 1876 Person Name: John B. Dykes Composer of "[Jesus, tender Shepherd, hear me]" in Junior Carols As a young child John Bacchus Dykes (b. Kingston-upon-Hull' England, 1823; d. Ticehurst, Sussex, England, 1876) took violin and piano lessons. At the age of ten he became the organist of St. John's in Hull, where his grandfather was vicar. After receiving a classics degree from St. Catherine College, Cambridge, England, he was ordained in the Church of England in 1847. In 1849 he became the precentor and choir director at Durham Cathedral, where he introduced reforms in the choir by insisting on consistent attendance, increasing rehearsals, and initiating music festivals. He served the parish of St. Oswald in Durham from 1862 until the year of his death. To the chagrin of his bishop, Dykes favored the high church practices associated with the Oxford Movement (choir robes, incense, and the like). A number of his three hundred hymn tunes are still respected as durable examples of Victorian hymnody. Most of his tunes were first published in Chope's Congregational Hymn and Tune Book (1857) and in early editions of the famous British hymnal, Hymns Ancient and Modern. Bert Polman
