HE LEADETH ME
Just as a good shepherd leads his sheep
into sweet safe pastures to lie,
So Our Lord, if we humbly ask, will lead
us the gentle, quiet waters by.
He will lead us through paths inviting and
pastures peaceful and green,
Lead us through the ways of righteousness
where only good is seen.
In our darkest hour when we are tired and
faint along life’s way,
He will gently, kindly lead us ever onward
to a better, brighter day.
For He is our Good Shepherd, our Master
and our Eternal Friend,
He will, if we let Him, always be with us
to the very end.
Then when this life on earth is ended, our
work on earth done,
We will know the Good Shepherd as a friend,
and the battle we’ll have won.
If we let the Lord be our Shepherd and lead
us gently by the hand,
We will become like Him, for we will start
to truly understand,
The great plan of salvation and another part
our Saviour did play,
Put on the earth not only to suffer and die
but show us the right way.
