1. O Thou in whose presence my soul takes delight,
    On whom in affliction I call;
    My comfort by day and my song in the night,
    My hope, my salvation, my all.
  2. Where dost Thou, dear Shepherd, resort with Thy sheep
    To feed them in pastures of love?
    Say, why in the valley of death should I weep,
    Or alone in this wilderness rove?
  3. He looks, and ten thousand of angels rejoice,
    And myriads now wait for His word;
    He speaks, and eternity, filled with His voice,
    Re-echoes the praise of the Lord.
  4. Dear Shepherd, I hear, and will follow Thy call,
    I know the sweet sound of Thy voice;
    Protect and defend me, for Thou art my all,
    And in Thee I will ever rejoice.
