LyicsTo thee, my Shepard and my Lord,
A grateful song I raise;
O let the feeblest of thy flock
Attempt to speak thy praise,
Attempt to speak thy praise.
But how shall mortal tongues express
But how shall mortal tongues express
A subject so divine?
A subject so divine?
Do justice to so vast a theme,
Or praise a love like thine?
Or praise a love like thine?
My life my joy, my hope,
I owe to this amazing love;
Ten thousand thousand comforts here,
And nobler bliss above.
To thee my trembling spirit flies,
With sin and grief oppressed,
To thee my trembling spirit flies
With sin and grief oppressed,
Thy gentle voice dispels my fears,
And lull my cares to rest,
And lull my cares to rest.
