87a. See the kind Shepherd, Jesus, stands

1 See the kind Shepherd, Jesus, stands,
And calls his sheep by name;
Gathers the feeble in his arms,
And feeds each tender lamb.

Refrain:
O Saviour, dear Saviour!
O joy of the blest;
How I long to be thine, in bright glory to shine,
And to be forever at rest.

2 He'll lead us to the heav'nly streams,
Where living waters flow:
And guide us to the fruitful fields,
Where trees of knowledge grow. [Refrain]

3 When, wand'ring from the fold, we leave
The straight and narrow way,
Our faithful Shepherd still is near
To guide us when we stray. [Refrain]

4 The feeblest lamb amid the flock,
Shall be the Shepherd's care;
While folded in our Saviour's arms,
We're safe from every snare. [Refrain]
