Lyrics
“Feed My Sheep”
Words by Mary Baker Eddy
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 self-righteousness be still,
Break earth’s stupid rest.
Strangers on a barren shore,
Lab’ring long and lone,
We would enter by the door,
And Thou know’st 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.)
