Text reference: Shepherd, show me how to go, by Mary Baker Eddy |
Lyrics: Shepherd, show me how to go O'er the hillside steep, how to gather how to sow, how to feed thy sheep; I will listen for thy voice, lest my footsteps stray; I will follow and rejoice all the rugged way. Thou wilt bind the stubborn will, wound the callous breast, make selfrighteousness be still, break earth's stupid rest. Strangers on a barren shore, laboring long and lone, we would enter by the door, and thou knowest thine own; so when day grows dark and cold, tear or triumph harms, lead thy lambkins to the fold. Take them in thine arms; feed the hungry, heal the heart, till the morning's beam; white as wool, ere they depart, shepherd wash them clean. Shepherd wash them clean, wash them clean. |
