LyicsJesus, tender Shepherd, hear me;
Bless thy little lamb to-night;
Through the darkness be thou near me;
Keep me safe till morning light.
All this day thy hand has led me,
And I thank thee for thy care;
Thou hast clothed me, warmed me, fed me,
Listen to my evening prayer!
May my sins be all forgiven
Bless the friends I love so well;
Take me, when I die, to heaven,
Happy there with thee to dwell.
