<p>Christ, Who once among us as a Child did dwell,<br>
Is the children&#8217;s Savior, and He loves us well;<br>
If we keep our promise made Him at the font,<br>
He will be our Shepherd, and we shall not want.</p>
<p>There it was they laid us in those tender arms,<br>
Where the lambs are carried safe from all alarms;<br>
If we trust His promise, He will let us rest<br>
In His arms forever, leaning on His breast.</p>
<p>Though we may not see Him for a little while,<br>
We shall know He holds us, often feel His smile;<br>
Death will be to slumber, in that sweet embrace,<br>
And we shall awaken to behold His face.</p>
<p>He will be our Shepherd after as before,<br>
By still heavenly waters lead us evermore,<br>
Make us lie in pastures beautiful and green,<br>
Where none thirst or hunger,<br>
And no tears are seen.</p>
<p>Jesus, our good Shepherd, laying down Thy life,<br>
Lest Thy sheep should perish in the cruel strife,<br>
Help us to remember all Thy love and care,<br>
Trust in Thee, and love Thee<br>
Always, everywhere.</p>
