|
| 1 | We'll sing of the Shepherd that died, | John 10:11; Hebrews 12:3 |
| That died for the sake of the flock; |
| His love to the utmost was tried, |
| But firmly endured as a rock. |
|
| 2 | When blood from a victim must flow, | Hebrews 9:22; Isaiah 63:9; John 10:18 |
| This Shepherd by pity was led |
| To stand between us and the foe, |
| And willingly died in our stead. |
|
| 3 | Our song, then, forever shall be | Revelation 1:5 |
| Of the Shepherd who gave Himself thus; |
| No subject's so glorious as He, |
| No theme so affecting to us. |
|
| 4 | Of Him and His love will we sing, |
| His praises our tongues shall employ |
| Till heavenly anthems we bring |
| In yonder bright regions of joy. |
