Lyrics:
VERSE 1
Jesus the shepherd of my soul, all of my needs supplies
By living waters gives me rest, keeping me by His side
Bringing my wandering spirit back when I forsake His ways
Leading me for His mercy’s sake in paths of truth and grace
VERSE 2
Jesus the shepherd of my soul when in the valley deep
Death like a shadow hides my way, still You are leading me
I will not fear the darkest hour, faithful You will remain
Comforting with Your rod and staff, driving my fears away
VERSE 3
Jesus the shepherd of my soul, keeping me from all harm
Ever until He leads me home, safely into His arms
When I behold Him face to face, then I will look and see
Goodness and mercy from His hand surely have followed me
TAG
When I behold Him face to face, then I will look and see
Goodness and mercy from His hand surely have followed me
