The Lord’s my shepherd, I’ll not want
He makes me down to lie
In pastures green; he leadeth me
the quiet waters by.

My soul he doth restore again;
and me to walk doth make
Within the paths of righteousness
ev’n for his own name sake.

Yea, though I walk in death’s dark vale,
yet will I fear no ill:
For Thou art with me; and thy rod
and staff me comfort still.

My table thou hast furnished
in presence of my foes:
My head thou dost with oil anoint,
and my cup overflows.

Goodness and mercy all my life
shall surely follow me:
And in God’s house for evermore
my dwelling place shall be.

Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!
Even though it be a cross
That raiseth me,
Still all my song would be,
“Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!”

Though, like the wanderer,
The sun gone down,
Darkness be over me,
My rest a stone,
Yet in my dreams I’d be
Nearer, my God, to Thee!
Nearer to Thee!

There let the way appear
Steps unto heaven,
All that Thou send’st to me
In mercy given,
Angels to beckon me
Nearer, my God, to Thee!
Nearer to Thee!

Then, with my waking thoughts
Bright with Thy praise,
Out of my stony griefs
Bethel I’ll raise,
So by my woes to be
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!

Or if on joyful wing
Cleaving the sky,
Sun, moon, and stars forgot,
Upwards I fly,
Still all my song shall be,
“Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!”

Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling,
Calling for you and for me;
See on the portals He’s waiting and watching,
Watching for you and for me.

Chorus
Come home, come home,
Ye who are weary, come home;
Earnestly tenderly, Jesus is calling,
Calling O sinner come home!

Why should we tarry when Jesus is pleading,
Pleading for you and for me?
Why should we linger and heed not His mercies,
Mercies for you and for me?
Chorus

Time is now fleeting, the moments are passing,
Passing for you and for me;
Shadows are gathering, death-beds are coming,
Coming for you and for me.
Chorus

Oh! For the wonderful love He has Promised,
Promised for you and for me;
Tho’ we have sinned, He has mercy and pardon,
Pardon for you and for me.
Chorus
