197   The King of Love My Shepherd Is




[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]
And so through all the length of days
Thy goodness faileth never;
Good Shepherd! I would sing Thy praise
Within Thy house forever.
