Hymn 636

Jesus Saviour is my Shepherd

Meter: 8.7.8.7.87.

Scripture: Ps. 23:1

1

Jesus Saviour is my Shepherd

Then, fear and distrust remove

From the lion and the wild bear

And from wild and evil beasts

Jesus will guard His lonely sheep

Jesus will care for His own.

2

Satan nearly o’er power’d me

Jesus said, "this is my sheep"

He died in order to save me

Jesus, what great love is this?

With Jesus, victory is sure

There’s nought Him can overcome.

3

He leads me in the way of Life,

Near the gently flowing stream;

He makes me rest in green pastures

Where pois’nous weeds do not grow,

There I hear the voice of Jesus

There He makes my heart rejoice.

4

When I walk the valley of death

And there’s fear along my way

I shall not fear any evil.

For my Shepherd is so near

His rod and staff they comfort me

For they make His sheep rejoice.
