572 ~ Jesus the Loving Shepherd

1

Jesus, the loving Shepherd, Calleth thee now to come Into the fold of safety, Where there is rest and room; Come in the strength of manhood, Come in the morn of youth, Enter the fold of safety, Enter the way of truth.


Refrain

Lovingly, tenderly calling is He: Wanderer, wanderer, come unto me; Patiently standing there, waiting. I see Jesus my Shepherd divine.

2

Jesus, the loving Shepherd, Gave His dear life for thee; Tenderly now He's calling, Wanderer, come to Me; Haste, for without is danger, Come, cries the Shepherd blest, Enter the fold of safety, Enter the place of rest.

3

Lingering is but folly; Wolves are abroad today, Seeking the sheep now straying, Seeking the lambs to slay; Jesus, the loving Shepherd, Calleth thee now to come Into the fold of safety, Where there is rest and room.
