Gracious Saviour, gentle Shepherd

Leeson; John Keble Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #354 (1961) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Topics: Christ Shepherd Lyrics: 1 Gracious Saviour, gentle Shepherd, Our little ones are dear to thee; Gathered with thine arms and carried In thy bosom may they be Sweetly, gently, safely tended, From all want and danger free. 2 Tender Shepherd, never leave them From thy fold to go astray; By thy look of love directed, May they walk the narrow way; Thus direct them, and protect them, Lest they fall an easy prey. 3 Let thy holy Word instruct them: Fill their minds with heav'nly light; Let thy love and grace constrain them, To approve whate'er is right, Take thine easy yoke and wear it, And to prove thy burden light. 4 Cleanse their hearts from sinful folly In the stream thy love supplied; Mingled streams of blood and water Flowing from thy wounded side: And to heav'nly pastures lead them, Where thine own still waters glide. Amen. Scripture: Isaiah 40:11 Languages: English Tune Title: DISMISSAL
