years after the Apostles) asserted to be of muci

ward. The following version will give some i'm
perfect idea of its spirit:
Shepherd of tender youth,
Guiding in love and truth,
Through devious ways;
Christ our triumphant King
We come thy name to sing,
And here our children bring,
To shout thy praise.
Thou art our holy Lord,
The all-subduing Word,
Healer of strife
Thou did'st myself abase,
That from sins deep disgrace
Thou highest save our race,
And give US life.
Thou art VISIONS HighPriest,
Thou hast prepared the feast
Of holy love,
And in our mortal pain
None call on thee in vain;
Help thou dost not disdain,
Help from above.
Ever be our Guide,
Our Shepherd and our pride,
Our staff and song.
Jesus, thou Christ of God!
By the perennial word,
Lead us where thou hast trod,
Make our faith strong.
So now, until we die,
Sound we thy praise on high,
And joyfully sing.
Infants, and the glad throng,
Who to thy Church belong,
Unite and swell the song
To Christ our King.
