The Lord is my shepherd; lit­tle lambs
May safe­ly trust His care;
I shall not want, for He will lead
To pas­tures green and fair.
Beside the wa­ters safe and still,
He guides me day by day;
And in the paths of right­eous­ness,
He gent­ly leads the way.

Refrain

Oh, lov­ing Shep­herd, call my name,
And keep me near Thy side;
For Thou art ev­er­more the same,
My guard­ian, friend and guide.

When thro’ the val­ley I must walk,
Where death’s dark sha­dows fall,
With rod and staff Thou wilt be near,
To help me when I call.
A boun­te­ous table Thou dost spread
Thou giv­est more and more;
With all the bless­ings of Thy love,
Behold, my cup runs o’er.

Refrain

Thy care un­ceas­ing, I will trust,
I fol­low af­ter Thee!
For Thou dost call me to Thy side,
Thy lit­tle lamb to be.
Thy good­ness, mer­cy, love and truth,
Shall fol­low me each day;
And I shall dwell in God’s own house:
My shep­herd says I may.
