You're the shepherd of my heart so treat it tenderly




It's a heart that needs your everloving care




You're the shepherd of my heart until eternity lead it not into the valley of despair





While it's in your keeping guard it with your love




Shelter it from harm along life's way




You're the shepherd of my heart and darling honestly





It's a heart that will not ever go astray





You're the shepherd of my heart so surely you must know





You have but to speak and my heart will obey




It's at your command my dear because it loves you so




So my darling shepherd guide it where you may





If it be green pastures or a rocky road it will follow you and not ask why




You're the shepherd of my heart until the trumpet blows




And I go to meet the shepherd in the sky
