The King of love my Shepherd is, Whose goodness faileth never; I nothing lack if I am His And He is mine for ever. | In death's dark vale I fear no ill With Thee, dear Lord, beside me; Thy rod and staff my comfort still, Thy cross before to guide me. |
Where streams of living water flow My ransomed soul He leadeth, And where the verdant pastures grow With food celestial feedeth. | Thou spread'st a table in my sight; Thy unction, grace bestoweth: And O what transport of delight From Thy pure chalice floweth! |
Perverse and foolish oft I strayed, But yet in love He sought me, And on His shoulder gently laid, And home, rejoicing, brought me. | And so through all the length of days Thy goodness faileth never; Good Shepherd, may I sing Thy praise Within Thy house for ever. |
"O’er all those wide extended plains / Shines one eternal day;
"There God the Son forever reigns / And scatters night away."
