Create PowerPoint slides from this hymn →A tender children's hymn by Jane Eliza Leeson (1842) cast as a prayer to Christ the Good Shepherd, asking for protection, guidance, and the grace to follow closely until meeting the Shepherd in heaven.
Verse 1
Loving Shepherd of Thy sheep,
Keep Thy lamb, in safety keep;
Nothing can Thy power withstand;
None can pluck me from Thy hand.
Verse 2
Loving Shepherd, ever near,
Teach Thy lamb Thy voice to hear;
Suffer not my steps to stray
From the straight and narrow way.
Verse 3
Where Thou leadest I would go,
Walking in Thy steps below,
Till within the heavenly fold
I my Shepherd shall behold.
