1	Saviour, like a shepherd lead us, 
	Much we need Thy tender care; 
	In Thy pleasant pastures feed us, 
	For our use Thy folds prepare: 
	Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus, 
	Thou hast bought us, Thine we are.

2	We are Thine: do Thou befriend us, 
	Be the Guardian of our way; 
	Keep from ill, from sin defend us, 
	Seek us when we go astray: 
	Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus, 
	Hear, Oh hear us when we pray.

3	Thou hast promised to receive us, 
	Poor and sinful though we be; 
	Thou hast mercy to relieve us, 
	Grace to cleanse and power to free: 
	Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus, 
	Early let us turn to Thee.

4	Early let us seek Thy favour, 
	Early let us do Thy will; 
	Blessed Lord and only Saviour, 
	With Thy love our bosoms fill: 
	Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus, 
	Thou hast loved us, love us still.
