lyrics

VERSE 1
Savior, like a shepherd lead us. Much we need Thy tender care.
In Thy pleasant pastures feed us. For our use Thy folds prepare.

CHORUS
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus. Thou hast brought us, Thine we are.
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus. Thou hast brought us, Thine we are.

VERSE 2
We are Thine, do Thou befriend us. Be the guardian of our way.
Keep Thy flock, from sin defend us. Seek us when we go astray.

CHORUS
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus. Hear, O hear us when we pray.
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus. Hear, O hear us when we pray.

VERSE 3
Thou has promised to receive us. Poor and sinful though we be.
Thou hast mercy to relieve us. Grace to cleanse and pow'r to free.

CHORUS:
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus. Early let us turn to Thee.
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus. Early let us turn to Thee.

BRIDGE
When the wolf comes to scatter us around.
Then the shepherd will lay his life down.

VERSE 4
Early let us seek Thy favor. Early let us do Thy will.
Blessed Lord and only Savior with Thy love our bosoms fill.

CHORUS
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus. Thou hast loved us, love us still.
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus. Thou hast loved us, love us still.

BRIDGE
When the wolf comes to scatter us around.

Then the shepherd will lay his life down.
Then the shepherd will lay his life down.

When the thief comes. The thief comes. The Thief only comes
To steal, kill, and destroy

You have come. You come. You have come to bring us life to the full.

VERSE 5
Savior, like a shepherd lead us. Much we need Thy tender care.
In Thy pleasant pastures feed us. For our use Thy folds prepare.

CHORUS
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus. Thou hast brought us, Thine we are.
Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus. Thou hast brought us, Thine we are.

OUTRO
You have come. You come. You have come to bring us life to the full.
You have come. You come. You have come to bring us life to the full.
You have come. You come. You have come to bring us life to the full.
You have come. You come. You have come to bring us life to the full.

You have come. You come. You have come to bring us.
You have come. You come. You have come to bring us life
