He shall feed His flock like a shepherd.
Isaiah 40:11
Words: Fanny Crosby, in Radiant Songs, by John Sweney, William J. Kirkpatrick & Henry L. Gilmour (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania: John J. Hood, 1891).
Music: John R. Sweney (🔊 pdf nwc).
He feedeth His flock like a shepherd,
And tenderly guideth their way;
His banner of mercy is o’er them,
Their refuge by night and by day.
Refrain
O wonderful Savior,
Precious Redeemer and friend;
He loveth the faithful that trust Him,
And loveth them unto the end.
He never will leave nor forsake them,
His own He hath promised to keep;
So great was His love and compassion,
He laid down His life for the sheep.
Refrain
He feedeth His flock like a shepherd,
And makes them in Him to rejoice;
They walk in the light of His presence,
And know the glad sound of His voice.
Refrain
He feedeth His flock like a shepherd,
And oh, ’twill be rapture untold,
When all shall be gathered together,
At home in the dear upper fold.
