My soul is lost so lonely and so cold just like a lamb that has strayed from the fold   Across the barren waste of sin I roam   Oh gentle shepherd hear my cry and lead me home   The hours go by on frightened wings of flight   While wolves of hell are waiting for the night   To claim the soul that wandered from the fold   Oh gentle shepherd hear my cry and save my soul   Oh gentle shepherd hear my lonely cry and in Thy cool green pastures let me lie   Beside the still clear waters lead Thou me   Oh gentle shepherd safe forevermore with Thee
