Lyrics
O Thou great God! Almighty God!
He who devotes himself to Thee
Shall not look back regretfully;
Though hell itself encamp against him,
Yet he fears not for Thou art with him;
Through constant childlike trust in Thee,
His anchor steadfast shalt Thou be;
O Thou great God! Almighty God!
O Holy Word! God's Holy Word!
Blest he whose heart doth closely heed,
When God in wondrous ways doth lead;
For he'll not leave the pathway straying,
The Spirit's voice each day obeying;
Thy Word lends strength and courage new,
And God grants grace to keep him true.
O Holy Word! God's Holy Word!
O Shepherd true! Thou Shepherd true!
Great is Thy tender, loving care,
Which Thou unto Thy sheep doth share;
O guide Thy faithful flock securely
That we may follow Thee sincerely;
And lead us to eternity
Where we forever blest shall be!
O Shepherd true! Thou Shepherd true!
He who devotes himself to Thee
Shall not look back regretfully;
Though hell itself encamp against him,
Yet he fears not for Thou art with him;
Through constant childlike trust in Thee,
His anchor steadfast shalt Thou be;
O Thou great God! Almighty God!
O Holy Word! God's Holy Word!
Blest he whose heart doth closely heed,
When God in wondrous ways doth lead;
For he'll not leave the pathway straying,
The Spirit's voice each day obeying;
Thy Word lends strength and courage new,
And God grants grace to keep him true.
O Holy Word! God's Holy Word!
O Shepherd true! Thou Shepherd true!
Great is Thy tender, loving care,
Which Thou unto Thy sheep doth share;
O guide Thy faithful flock securely
That we may follow Thee sincerely;
And lead us to eternity
Where we forever blest shall be!
O Shepherd true! Thou Shepherd true!
