Author: Cooke Hymnal: Laudes Domini #259 (1890) Hymnal Title: Laudes Domini First Line: Jesus, Shepherd of the sheep Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Shepherd of the sheep,
Who thy Father's flock dost keep,
Safe we wake and safe we sleep,
Guarded still by thee.
2 In thy promise firm we stand,
None can pluck us from thy hand,
Speak we hear at thy command,
We will follow thee.
3 By thy blood our souls were bought,
By thy life salvation wrought,
By thy light our feet are taught,
Lord, to follow thee.
4 Father, draw us to thy Son;
We with joy will follow on,
Till the work of grace is done,
And from sin set free
5 We in robes of glory dressed,
Join the assembly of the blest,
Gathered to eternal rest,
In the fold with thee. Topics: Repentance Unto Life; Atonement Accepted; Christ Shepherd; Repentance; Atonement Accepted; Christ Shepherd; Repentance Languages: English
