Author: Mary Lundie Duncan, 1814 - 40 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #235 (1958) Tune Title: EVENING PRAYER Lyrics: 1 Jesus, tender Shepherd, hear me,
Bless thy little lamb tonight;
Through the darkness be thou near me,
Keep me safe till morning light.
2 Through 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. A-men.
3 Let my sins be all forgiven;
Bless the friends I love so well;
Take me, Lord, at last to heaven,
Happy there with thee to dwell.
Amen. Topics: Church Life and Work Home and Family; The Church Worship - Evening Languages: English
