The King Of Love My Shepherd
Is
(St. Columba)
The King of Love my Shepherd
is,
Whose goodness fails me never;
I nothing lack if I am His,
and He is mine forever.
Whose goodness fails me never;
I nothing lack if I am His,
and He is mine forever.
Where streams of living water
flow
With gentle care He leads me,
And where the verdant pastures grow
With Heav'nly food He feeds me.
With gentle care He leads me,
And where the verdant pastures grow
With Heav'nly food He feeds me.
Perverse and foolish I have
strayed
But yet in love He sought me,
and on His shoulder gently laid,
and home, rejoicing brought me.
But yet in love He sought me,
and on His shoulder gently laid,
and home, rejoicing brought me.
In death's dark vale I fear no
ill
With You, dear Lord, beside me,
With You, dear Lord, beside me,
Your rod and staff my comfort still,
Your Cross before to guide me.
Your Cross before to guide me.
You
spread a table in my sight,
Your saving grace bestowing;
And O what joy and true delight
From Your pure chalice flowing!
Your saving grace bestowing;
And O what joy and true delight
From Your pure chalice flowing!
And so through all the length of
days
Your goodness fails me never;
Good Shepherd, may I sing Your praise
Within Your house forever.
Your goodness fails me never;
Good Shepherd, may I sing Your praise
Within Your house forever.
