1 Such perfect love my Shepherd shows,
whose goodness fails me never,
Whose hand all things I need bestows
and watches me forever.

2 Where streams of living water flow,
my loving Shepherd leads me,
And where the verdant pastures grow,
with food from heaven feeds me.

3 When vain and foolish oft I strayed,
you, faithful Shepherd, sought me,
And on your shoulder gently laid,
then home rejoicing brought me.

4 I do not fear death's shadowed vale
when you are here beside me;
Your rod and staff and strength prevail
to comfort and to guide me.

5 You spread a table in my sight,
your gifts of grace bestowing;
And from your chalice I delight
to taste your mercy flowing.

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