Lyrics:

SHEPHERD OF LOVE, by John W. Peterson

Shepherd of love
You knew I had lost my way
Shepherd of love
You cared that I’d gone astray
You sought and found me placed around me
Strong arms that carried me home
No foe can harm me or alarm me
Never again will I roam
Shepherd of love
Savior and Lord and Guide
Shepherd of love
Forever I’ll stay by Your side

Shepherd of love
Contentment at last is mine
Deep in my heart
There’s peace and a joy divine
The future’s brighter burden’s lighter
My cup runs over each day
Your grace supplied me now provides me
All that I need for the way
Shepherd of love
Savior and Lord and Guide
Shepherd of love
Forever I’ll stay by Your side

PRECIOUS LORD, TAKE MY HAND, by Thomas Andrew Dorsey
When my way groweth drear
Precious Lord, linger near-ear
When my li-ight is almost gone
Hear my cry, hear my call
Hold my ha-and lest I fa-all
Take my hand, precious Lor-ord
Lead me on

Precious Lord, take my hand
Lead me on, let me sta-and
I am tired, I’m weak, I am worn
Through the storm, through the night
Lead me on to the li-ight
Take my ha-and, precious Lor-ord
Lead me home

When my work is all done
And my race here is are you-un
Let me see-ee by the light
Thou hast shown
That fair city so bright
Where the lantern is the li-ight
Take my ha-and, precious Lor-ord
Lead me on

Precious Lord, take my hand
Lead me on, let me sta-and
I am tired, I’m weak, I am worn
Through the storm, through the night
Lead me on to the li-ight
Take my ha-and, precious Lor-ord
Lead me home

HE LEADETH ME,  by J.H. Gilmore

1 He leadeth me: O blessed thought!
O words with heavenly comfort fraught!
Whate’er I do, where’er I be,
still ’tis God’s hand that leadeth me.

Refrain:
He leadeth me, he leadeth me;
by his own hand he leadeth me:
his faithful follower I would be,
for by his hand he leadeth me.

2 Sometimes mid scenes of deepest gloom,
sometimes where Eden’s flowers bloom,
by waters calm, o’er troubled sea,
still ’tis God’s hand that leadeth me. Refrain

3 Lord, I would clasp thy hand in mine,
nor ever murmur nor repine;
content, whatever lot I see,
since ’tis my God that leadeth me. Refrain

4 And when my task on earth is done,
when, by thy grace, the victory’s won,
e’en death’s cold wave I will not flee,
since God through Jordan leadeth me. Refrain
