Shepherd of My Soul

Oh Thou in Whose presence delighteth my soul, And Whom in my distress I call, My comfort by day and my refuge by night, My stronghold whenever I fall.

Shepherd of my soul I beg Thee to tell, Where Thou keepest Thy sheep to rest, For why should I roam in the valley of tears, And wander as one who is lost?

I ask thee to tell me daughters of Zion: Have ye seen the One I adore? I seek Him in vain in the night of my soul, But lo, I can find Him no more.

Shepherd of my soul I shall follow Thee, Oh, how sweet Thy voice is to me! So guide me and lead me and show me the way, My only desire is Thee.

I am my Beloved's and He is mine, He calleth me sister and spouse, (Oh, how do I long for the day we shall wed, In heaven in His Father's house) x2
