1. The King of love my shepherd is, whose goodness faileth never. I nothing lack if I am his, and he is mine forever.

2. Where streams of living water flow, my randomed soul he leadeth; and where the verdant pastures grow, with food celestial feedeth.

3. Perverse and foolish, oft I strayed, but yet in love he sought me; and on his shoulder gently laid, and home, rejoicing, brought me.

4. In death's dark vale I fear no ill, with thee, dear Lord, beside me; thy rod and staff my comfort still, thy cross before to guide me.

5. Thou spreadst a table in my sight; thy unction grace bestoweth; and oh, what transport of delight from thy pure chalice floweth!

6. And so through all the length of days, thy goodness faileth never; Good Shepherd, may I sing thy praise within thy house forever.
