Jesus, Great Shepherd Of The Sheep,
To Thee For Help We Fly:
Thy Little Flock In Safety Keep;
For O! The Wolf Is Nigh.
He Comes, Of Hellish Malice Full,
To Scatter, Tear, And Slay;
He Seizes Every Straggling Soul,
As His Own Lawful Prey.
Us Into Thy Protection Take,
And Gather With Thy Arm;
Unless The Fold We First Forsake,
The Wolf Can Never Harm.
We Laugh To Scorn His Cruel Power,
While By Our Shepherd’s Side;
The Sheep He Never Can Devour,
Unless He First Divide.
O Do Not Suffer Him To Part
The Souls That Here Agree;
But Make Us Of One Mind And Heart,
And Keep Us One In Thee!
Together Let Us Sweetly Live,
Together Let Us Die;
And Each A Starry Crown Receive,
And Reign Above The Sky.
