  1. Shepherd of tender youth,
    Guiding in love and truth
    Through devious ways;
    Christ, our triumphant king,
    We come Your name to sing
    And here our children bring
    To join Your praise.
  2. You are our holy Lord,
    The all-subduing Word,
    Healer of strife.
    Yourself You did abase
    That from sin’s deep disgrace
    You so might save our race
    And give us life.
  3. You are the great High Priest;
    You have prepared the feast
    Of holy love;
    And in our mortal pain
    None calls on You in vain;
    Our pleas do not disdain—
    Help from above.
  4. Forever be our guide,
    Our shepherd and our pride,
    Our staff and song.
    Jesus, O Christ of God,
    By Your enduring Word,
    Lead us where You have trod;
    Make our faith strong.
  5. So now, and till we die,
    Sound we Your praises high
    And joyful sing:
    Infants, and all the throng
    Who to Your church belong,
    Unite to swell the song
    To Christ, our king!
