The Lord my pasture shall prepare

Appears in 564 hymnals Topics: Blessings temporal and spiritual God our Shepherd Lyrics: 1 The Lord my pasture shall prepare, And feed me with a shepherd's care; His presence shall my wants supply, And guard me with a watchful eye. 2 My noon-day walks he shall attend, And all my midnight hours defend; When in the sultry glebe I faint, Or on the thirsty mountain pant. 3 To fertile vales and dewy meads, My weary, wand'ring steps he leads, Where peaceful rivers, soft and slow, Amidst the verdant landskip flow. 4 Though in a bare and rugged way, Through devious lonely wilds I stray, Thy presence shall my pains beguile, The barren wilderness shall smile. 5 With sudden greens and herbage crown'd, And streams shall murmur all around. Though in the paths of death I tread, With gloomy horrors overspread, 6 My stedfast heart shall fear no ill, For thou, O Lord, art with me still: Thy friendly crook shall give me aid, And guide me through the dismal shade.

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 29 hymnals Topics: Scripture Doctrines and Blessings Regeneration First Line: When some kind shepherd from his fold Lyrics: 1 When some kind shepherd from his fold, Has lost a straying sheep, Through vales, o'er hills, he anxious roves, And climbs the mountain's steep. 2 But O the joy! the transport sweet! When he the wand'rer finds; Up in his arms he takes his charge, And to his shoulder binds. 3 Homeward he hastes to tell his joys, And make his bliss complete: The neighbours hear the news, and all The joyful shepherd greet. 4 Yet how much greater is the joy When but one sinner turns; When the poor wretch with broken heart, His sins and errors mourns. 5 Pleas'd with the news, the saints below, In songs their tongues employ; Beyond the skies, the tidings go, And Heaven is fill'd with joy. 6 Well-pleas'd the Father sees and hears The conscious sinner weep; Jesus receives him in his arms, And owns him for his sheep. 7 Nor angels can their joys contain, But kindle with new fire: "A wandering sheep's return'd," they sing, And strike the sounding lyre.
