He leadeth me beside still waters, He restoreth my soul.
Psalm 23:1–3
Words: Philip P. Bliss, Gospel Songs (Cincinnati, Ohio: John Church, 1874), number 49.
See the gentle Shepherd standing
Where the quiet waters flow;
To the pastures green inviting,
Hungry, thirsty, let us go.
Refrain
Where He leads we will follow,
Where He leads we will follow,
Where He leads we will follow,
We will follow all the way.
Only by the door we enter,
All who enter He will save;
Life abundantly bestowing,
Though His life the Shepherd gave.
Refrain
Safe within the fold He leads us,
He the shepherd, we His own;
And as Him the Father knoweth,
Precious thought—of Him we’re known.
