Hymn
He Calleth His Sheep
Words: Adams, Ophelia G.
O Jesus, our Shepherd, how sweet is thy voice, Its gentle tones we know; And in thy dear presence we always rejoice, Wherever thou leadest we go.
Chorus
Jesus now is calling, calling, calling, Jesus now is calling you and me; Where the Shepherd leadeth, leadeth, leadeth, Gladly we will follow, we'll follow thee.
In pastures of plenty his flock ever feeds, And there our souls find rest; To wells of salvation he daily leads, Where waters are calm and so blest! [Chorus]
O blessed assurance, he knoweth his sheep, And he his own will claim; His flock from the snares of the foe he will keep, For he calleth them all by name. [Chorus]
O Jesus, our Shepherd, so kind and so good, For us thy life to give; And save us from sin by thine own precious blood, That henceforth for thee we may live [Chorus]
