Saviour Like a Shepherd Lead Us / Bring Them In by William B. Bradbury / William Augustine Ogden — Lyrics

SAVIOUR LIKE A SHEPHERD LEAD US VERSE 1 Saviour, like a shepherd lead us, Much we need Thy tender care; In Thy pleasant pastures feed us, For our use Thy folds prepare; Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus, Thou hast bought us, Thine we are; Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus, Thou hast bought us, Thine we are. Amen. VERSE 2 We are Thine; do Thou befriend us, Be the guardian of our way; Keep Thy flock from sin, defend us, Seek us when we go astray: Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus, Thou hast bought us, Thine we are; Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus, Thou hast bought us, Thine we are. VERSE 3

About Saviour Like a Shepherd Lead Us / Bring Them In

This beautiful pairing of two classic hymns centers entirely on the image of Christ as the Good Shepherd. "Saviour Like a Shepherd Lead Us" opens the arrangement as a gentle, trusting prayer for guidance and protection. It is a staple in many Nigerian parishes, often sung during the Offertory or Communion when the congregation reflects on their dependence on God’s tender care and provision.

The mood shifts with "Bring Them In," moving from a quiet prayer of the flock to an active call to ministry. Here, the choir takes up the urgent mission of seeking out the lost and wandering sheep. The lively refrain is a favorite for stirring up the congregation, reminding everyone in the pews that they too are called to help gather souls from the "fields of sin" back into the safety of the Master's fold. Together, these pieces offer a complete picture of Christian discipleship: first being led by the Shepherd, and then joining Him in the work of salvation.
