O Shepherd divine, I know Thou art mine;
Thy search in the night was for me.
This bleak world is cold, but warm is Thy fold;
My Shepherd, I follow Thee.
Thy beautiful lamp shineth bright o’er my way,
Thy glorious light unto Thy perfect day.
Thro’ pastures serene,
Thro’ valleys of green,
My Shepherd, I follow Thee.

O Shepherd divine, I know Thou art mine;
Thy great heart was broken for me.
Thy grace and Thy law I picture in awe;
They kissed upon Calvary.
Ah! Life that was given to ransom my soul,
Ah! Heart that was broken to make sinners whole,
This world is but loss
In view of Thy cross,
My Shepherd, I follow Thee.

O Shepherd divine, I know Thou art mine;
I hear Thee say, “Follow thou Me.”
Thy message today illumines my way;
The Spirit of Prophecy.
I thrill at Thy marvellous love to Thy sheep,
The way Thou dost lead to the still waters deep,
One staff and one rod,
One fold and one God;
My Shepherd, I follow Thee.

Filled my heart today with the beautiful words in this hymn.
Amen
amen is right
I am writing a book on the Psalms and would like to incorporate this song in its entirety. How do or where can I obtain permission to do so? Who holds the copyright?
It has touched my heart and given me comfort and assurance in His love and faithfulness.
Somehow, like so many others, i have been singing this song without paying attention to the words. Today I am touched by the beauty of the love of my Saviour in providing all the guidance and care we need to abide in His kingdom, now and in eternity.
Thank you Jesus!
