|
<p>O Thou in Whose presence my soul takes delight,<br>
|
|
On Whom in affliction I call,<br>
|
|
My Comfort by day and my Song in the night,<br>
|
|
My Hope, my Salvation, my All!</p>
|
|
<p>Where dost Thou, dear Shepherd, resort with Thy sheep,<br>
|
|
To feed them in pastures of love?<br>
|
|
Say, why in the valley of death should I weep,<br>
|
|
Or alone in this wilderness rove?</p>
|
|
<p>O why should I wander, an alien from Thee,<br>
|
|
Or cry in the desert for bread?<br>
|
|
Thy foes will rejoice when my sorrows they see,<br>
|
|
And smile at the tears I have shed.</p>
|
|
<p>He looks, and ten thousands of angels rejoice,<br>
|
|
And myriads wait for His Word.<br>
|
|
He speaks, and eternity, filled with His voice,<br>
|
|
Reechoes the praise of the Lord.</p>
|
|
<p>Dear Shepherd, I hear and will follow Thy call;<br>
|
|
I know the sweet sound of Thy voice.<br>
|
|
Restore and defend me, for Thou art my All,<br>
|
|
And in Thee I will ever rejoice.</p>
