John 10:3

[Joh 10:3] “follow Me!” A Call So Tender
“Follow Me!” A call so tender
Falls upon my list’ning ear;
’Tis the voice of Christ, my Savior,
’Tis the Shepherd’s call I hear.Refrain
O that call! Loving call!
’Tis the sweetest voice of all.
How it draws me nearer to Him
When I hear my Shepherd’s call!Into pastures green He leadeth,
His own sheep He calls by name;
When their feet are sore and weary,
In His arms He carries them.Refrain
Little flock, fear not! He shields thee
From the dangers of the land.
Hear His promise: None shall ever
Pluck thee from His mighty hand.Refrain
In His steps, then, I would follow,
Seek in Him my all in all;
I am safe, whate’er befalls me,
When I heed His tender call.Refrain

[Joh 10:3] God Leads Us Along
In shady, green pastures, so rich and so sweet,
God leads His dear children along;
Where the water’s cool flow bathes the weary one’s feet,
God leads His dear children along.Refrain
Some through the waters, some through the flood,
Some through the fire, but all through the blood;
Some through great sorrow, but God gives a song,
In the night season and all the day long.Sometimes on the mount where the sun shines so bright,
God leads His dear children along;
Sometimes in the valley, in darkest of night,
God leads His dear children along.Refrain
Though sorrows befall us and evils oppose,
God leads His dear children along;
Through grace we can conquer, defeat all our foes,
God leads His dear children along.Refrain
Away from the mire, and away from the clay,
God leads His dear children along;
Away up in glory, eternity’s day,
God leads His dear children along.Refrain

[Joh 10:3] Lead Us, Heavenly Father (herford)
Lead us, heavenly Father,
In our opening way,
Lead us in the morning
Of our little day.
While our hearts are happy,
While our souls are free,
May we give our childhood
As a song to Thee.Lead us, heavenly Father,
As the way grows long,
Be our strong salvation,
Be our joyous song.
Gladdened by Thy mercies,
Chastened by Thy rod,
May we walk through all things
Humbly with our God.Lead us, heavenly Father,
By Thy voices clear—
Through Thy prophets holy,
Through Thy Son so dear—
Him Who took the children
In His arms of love;
May we all be gathered
In His home above.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

[Joh 10:3] Seeking For Me
Jesus, my Savior, to Bethlehem came,
Laid in a manger to sorrow and shame;
Oh, it was wonderful, blest be His Name,
Seeking for me, for me:
Seeking for me, seeking for me,
Seeking for me, seeking for me,
Oh, it was wonderful, blest be His Name,
Seeking for me, for me.Jesus, my Savior, in mercy and love,
Came from the mansions of Heaven above,
Tenderly pleading with sinners like me,
Pleading for me, for me:
Pleading for me, pleading for me,
Pleading for me, pleading for me,
Tenderly pleading for sinners like me,
Pleading for me, for me.Jesus, my Savior, the same as of old,
While I did wander afar from the fold,
Gently and long He hath pled with my soul,
Calling for me, for me:
Calling for me, calling for me,
Calling for me, calling for me,
Gently and long He hath pled with my soul,
Calling for me, for me.Jesus, my Savior, will come from on high,
Sweet is the promise as weary years fly;
Oh, I shall see Him descending the sky,
Coming for me, for me:
Coming for me, coming for me,
Coming for me, coming for me,
Oh, I shall see Him descending the sky,
Coming for me, for me.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

[Joh 10:3] Shepherd’s Call, The
A shepherd band their flocks are keeping,
And gentle lambs are sweetly sleeping;
When suddenly they all behold
An angel in bright robes, with harp of gold.Glad tidings of great joy he bringeth,
The azure vault with anthems ringeth;
Immanuel awakes the song,
And countless hosts the glorious theme prolong.“To you, this day, is born a Savior,
Your Prophet, Priest and King forever;
All glory be to God,” they cry;
“All glory be to God,” let earth reply.“On earth be peace with mercy blending,
Goodwill to men, and love unending”;
Thus sweetly sing the angel throng,
And all the heav’nly host rehearse the song.Through field and wood the song resoundeth,
O’er hill and vale the chorus boundeth;
Exultingly the echoes roll,
And hymns of triumph spread from pole to pole.The shepherds view the host returning,
Their hearts with holy ardor burning;
To Bethlehem they wend their way,
Repeating with glad tongues th’angelic lay.In haste they seek the heav’nly Stranger;
They find the Babe laid in a manger;
With wonder and with awe they fall,
And joyfully adore Him, Lord of all.Now every voice with rapture swelleth,
For Christ the Lord with mortals dwelleth;
Let men and angels Him adore,
And shout their loud hosannas evermore.Play source: Cyberhymnal

[Joh 10:16] Bring Them In
Hark! ’tis the Shepherd’s voice I hear
Out in the desert dark and drear,
Calling the sheep who’ve gone astray
Far from the Shepherd’s fold away.Refrain
Bring them in, bring them in,
Bring them in from the fields of sin;
Bring them in, bring them in,
Bring the wand’ring ones to Jesus.Who’ll go and help this Shepherd kind,
Help Him the wand’ring ones to find?
Who’ll bring the lost ones to the fold,
Where they’ll be sheltered from the cold?Refrain
Out in the desert hear their cry,
Out on the mountains wild and high;
Hark! ’tis the Master speaks to thee,
“Go find My sheep where’er they be.”Refrain

[Joh 10:16] Our Savior’s Voice Is Soft And Sweet
Our Savior’s voice is soft and sweet
When, bending from above,
He bids us gather round His feet,
And calls us by His love.But while our thankful hearts rejoice
That thus He bids us come,
“Jesus!” we cry with pleading voice,
“Bring heathen wand’rers home.”They never heard the Savior’s Name,
They have not learned His way;
They do not know His grace Who came
To take their sins away.Dear Savior, let the joyful sound
In distant lands be heard;
And, oh! wherever sin is found,
Send forth Thy pardoning Word.And if our lips may breathe a prayer,
Though raised in trembling fear,
Oh! let Thy grace our hearts prepare,
And choose some heralds here.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Joh 10:16] Remember All The People
Remember all the people
Who live in far off lands
In strange and lovely cities
Or roam the desert sands,
Or farm the mountain pastures
Or till the endless plains
Where children wade through rice fields
And watch the camel trains.Some work in sultry forests
Where apes swing to and fro,
Some fish in mighty rivers,
Some hunt across the snow.
Remember all God’s children,
Who yet have never Heard
The truth that comes from Jesus,
The glory of His Word.God bless the men and women
Who serve Him overseas;
God raise up more to help them
To set the nations free,
Till all the distant people
In every foreign place
Shall understand His kingdom,
And come into His grace.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Joh 10:16] Shepherd’s Fold On High, The
When the sheep have all been gathered,
To the Shepherd’s fold on high,
And are resting, sweetly resting
’Neath a calm, unchanging sky;
When we look with cloudless vision
Stretching far and far away,
O’er that land beyond the sunset,
Where the morning breezes play.Refrain
There, beside the wells of water
From celestial springs,
Celestial springs that flow,
There the everlasting kindness
Of our Savior we shall know.When our final march is ended,
And the last dread conflict o’er;
When the world recedes forever,
To revolve as now no more;
When the hosts of God’s redeemed ones
With the grand orchestral throng
Of the angels and archangels
Shout their hallelujah song.Refrain
There’s a river that proceedeth
From our Father’s throne above,
Still reflecting on its bosom
His eternal light of love;
Oh, to think that on its margin
With our kindred we may dwell,
In a home beyond the shadows
Never more to say farewell.Refrain

All hail! the gift of Christ our Lord,

Jesus makes my heart rejoice,

And His pastures are delicious;
Constant love to me He shows,
Yea, my very name He knows.Trusting His mild staff always,
I go in and out in peace;

Of His grace in richest measure;
When athirst to Him I cry,
Living water He’ll supply.Should not I for gladness leap,
Led by Jesus as His sheep?

To the arms of my dear Savior

Keep Thy lamb, in safety keep;
Nothing can Thy power withstand,

Thine own life that we might live,
And the hands outstretched to bless
Bear the cruel nails’ impress.I would praise Thee every day,
Gladly all Thy will obey,

Happy in Thy precious love.Loving Shepherd, ever near,

From the straight and narrow way.Where Thou leadest I would go,
Walking in Thy steps below,

Where I lead them so often to feed;
My sheep know My voice and the cool sparkling stream
Where beside its still waters I lead.Refrain

Through which I shall lead them some day;
But no danger nor harm can touch one of them,
For I will be with them alway.Refrain
