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. Topics: Children Lambs; Christ Shepherd; Evening; Prayer; Primary Department Tune Title: [Jesus, tender Shepherd, hear me]
