1 Jesus is a loving Shepherd,
I am His lamb;
When I follow where He leads me,
Happy I am.

Refrain:
Jesus, loving Shepherd, lead me,
Lead me lest I go astray;
Jesus, loving Shepherd, lead me,
Lead me all the way.

2 Jesus is a loving Shepherd,
Strong is His arm;
When I follow where He leads me,
I fear no harm. [Refrain]

Gracious and true;
When I follow where He leads me,
He gives me food. [Refrain]

4 Jesus is a loving Shepherd,
Tender and kind;
When I follow where He leads me,
All good I find. [Refrain]
