- The king of love my shepherd is,
- .i Henry Williams Baker
-
- .1
- The King of love my Shepherd is,
- Whose goodness faileth never;
- I nothing lack if I am his
- And he is mine forever.
-
- .2
- Where streams of living water flow
- My ransomed soul he leadeth,
- And where the verdant
- pastures grow
- With food celestial feedeth.
-
- .3
- Perverse and foolish oft I strayed,
- But yet in love He sought me,
- And on his shoulder gently laid,
- And home rejoicing brought me.
-
- .4
- 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.
-
- .5
- Thou spread'st a table in my sight;
- Thy unction grace bestoweth:
- And O what transport of delight
- From thy pure chalice floweth!
-
- .6
- And so through
- all the length of days
- Thy goodness faileth never;
- Good shepherd,
- may I sing Thy praise
- Within Thy house forever.
