Leeson; Jonathan Whittemore Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #627 (1941) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Topics: The Christian Home Christian Education Lyrics: 1 Gracious Savior, gentle Shepherd, Children all are dear to Thee; Gathered with Thine arms and carried In Thy bosom may they be; Sweetly, fondly, safely tended, From all want and danger free. 2 Tender Shepherd, never leave them, Never let them go astray; By Thy warning love directed, May we walk the narrow way! Thus direct them, thus defend them, Lest they fall an easy prey. 3 Cleanse their hearts from sinful folly In the stream Thy love supplied, Mingled stream of blood and water Flowing from Thy wounded side; And to heav'nly pastures lead them, Where Thine own still waters glide. 4 Let Thy holy Word instruct them; Fill their minds with heavenly light; Let Thy powerful grace constrain them To approve whate'er is right; Let them feel Thy yoke is easy, Let them prove Thy burden light. 5 Taught to lisp Thy holy praises Which on earth Thy children sing, Both with lips and hearts, unfeignèd, Glad thank-offerings may they bring; Then with all the saints in glory Join to praise their Lord and King. Amen. Join to praise our Lord and King. Scripture: Mark 10:14 Languages: English Tune Title: SIEH, HIER BIN ICH
