Analyze: Jesus, Tender Shepherd, Hear Me

by Gerhardt, Paul (1607-1676), tr. composite

Song Lyrics

1. Je- sus, ten- der Shep- herd, hear me; Bless Thy lit- tle la- mb to- night; Through the dark- ness be Thou near me; Watch my sleep till morn- ing light.

2. All this day thy hand has led me, And I thank Thee fo- r Thy care; Thou hast clothed me, warmed and fed me, Lis- ten to my eve- ning prayer.

3. Let my sins be all for- giv- en; Bless the friends I lo- ve so well; Take me, when I die, to hea- ven, Hap- py there with Thee to dwell.
