Showers of Blessing ‎#27

27. He Feedeth His Flock

1 O sweet is the voice of my Shepherd,
Who leadeth me day by day,
Who covers my life with his mercy,
And lovingly guides my way.

Refrain:
He feedeth his flock at the noontide,
Where fountains are murmuring low,
He feedeth his flock by the lilies,
In beautiful vales that grow.

2 When far from my Shepherd I wandered,
Alone on the mountain cold,
He carried me home from the darkness
To rest in his own dear fold. [Refrain]

3 And tho’ I may walk thro’ the shadow,
No evil can harm me there;
His rod and his staff are my comfort,
He maketh my soul his care. [Refrain]

4 O sweet is the voice of my Shepherd,
No other so kind as he:
The wonderful, wonderful Shepherd,
Who laid down his life for me! [Refrain]
