To-day the Lord Our Shepherd leads

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Sacred Poems and Hymns #161 (1854) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Good Shepherd Lyrics: To-day the Lord our Shepherd leads To living streams His little flock, In green and flowery pastures feeds, And shades at noon beneath the rock. To-day we hear our Shepherd's voice, And gladly answer to His call; For Him, unseen, our hearts rejoice, Who knows, and names, and loves us all. Far from His fold we went astray; The howling wilderness He cross'd, 165 From Satan pluck'd us as a prey, Nor spared Himself to save the lost. Beneath His eye no vain alarms, No ravening wolves our walks infest; The lambs He gathers in His arms, And bears the feeble on His breast. By Him conducted, though we tread Death's valley, darkening on the view, No evil there our spirits dread, His rod and staff will guard us through. When the Chief Shepherd shall appear, And small and great before Him stand, Oh! be the flock, assembling here, Found with the sheep on His right hand. Languages: English

O pour the vital torrent down, Thy people's joy, their Lord's renown. 3 Scarce half alive we sigh and cry; Scarce raise to thee our languid eye; Kind Savior let our dying state Compassion in thy heart create. 4 The shepherd's blood the sheep must heal; O may we all its influence feel 'Till inward deep experience show, Christ can begin a heav'n below.

The Lord is my Shepherd

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Sacred Poems and Hymns #40 (1854) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Topics: Good Shepherd Lyrics: The Lord is my Shepherd, nor want shall I know; I feed in green pastures, safe-folded I rest; He leadeth my soul where the still waters flow, Restores me when wandering, redeems when opprest. Through the valley and shadow of death though I stray, Since Thou art my guardian no evil I fear; Thy rod shall defend me, Thy staff be my stay; No harm can befall, with my Comforter near. In the midst of affliction my table is spread; With blessings unmeasured my cup runneth o'er; With perfume and oil, Thou anointest my head; O! what shall I ask of Thy Providence more? Let goodness and mercy, my bountiful God! Still follow my steps, till I meet Thee above: 41 I seek, by the path which my forefathers trod Through the land of their sojourn, Thy kingdom of love.

The Lord is my shepherd, my guardian, and guide

Hymnal: A Collection of Psalms and Hymns for Publick Worship #XXXVII (1789) Topics: Blessings temporal and spiritual God our Shepherd Lyrics: 1 The Lord is my shepherd, my guardian, and guide; Whatsoever I want, he will kindly provide; To the sheep of his pasture his mercies abound, His care and protection his flock will surround; If e'er from his fold they should wander abroad, His care will recall them, and fix their abode, Where himself, in the midst, with a provident eye, Will regard all their wants, and provide a supply. 2 The Lord is my shepherd, what then shall I fear? What danger can frighten me while he is near? Not when the time calls me to walk thro' the vale Of the shadow of death, shall my heart ever fail; Tho' afraid, of myself, to pursue the dark way, Thy rod and thy staff be my comfort and stay; For I know, by thy guidance, when once it is past, To a fountain of life it will bring me at last. 3 The Lord is become my salvation and song, His blessings shall follow me all my life long; Whatsoever condition he places me in, I am sure 'tis the best it could ever have been; For the Lord he is good, and his mercies are sure; He only afflicts us, in order to cure; The Lord will I praise while I have any breath, Be content all my life, and resign'd in my death.
