Watch o'er me, Heavenly Shepherd,
Extend Thy crook of love,
That so no germ of anger
A source of trial prove.
Keep me within Thy pastures,
And feed me from Thy hand;
Let no temptation snare me,
Or tear me from Thy hand.
May innocence and purity
My clothing ever be,
That though this earth is still my home,
I may walk close to Thee.
