Lyrics
Verse 1
Jesus, the loving Shepherd, Calleth thee now to come Into the fold of safety Where there is rest and room; Come in the strength of manhood, Come in the morn of youth, Enter the fold of safety, Enter the way of truth.
Verse 2
Jesus, the loving Shepherd, Gave His dear life for thee; Tenderly now He's calling, Wanderer come to me; Haste! For without is danger, Come, cries the shepherd blest; Enter the fold of safety, Enter the place of rest.
Verse 3
Lingering is but folly, Wolves are abroad today, Seeking the sheep who're straying, Seeking the lambs to slay; Jesus, the loving Shepherd, Calleth thee now to come; Enter to fold of safety, Where there is rest and room.
Chorus
Lovingly, tenderly calling is He, Wandrerer, wanderer come unto me, Patiently waiting there standing I see, Jesus my Shepherd divine.
