533 – We Bid Thee Welcome

We bid thee welcome in the name Of Jesus, our exalted Head. Come as a servant, -so He came And we receive thee in His stead.

2.

Come as a shepherd; guard and keep This fold from harm of earth and sin; Nourish the lambs and feed the sheep; The wounded heal, the lost bring in.

3.

Come as a teacher sent from God, Charged His whole counsel to declare.  Lift o'er our ranks the prophet's rod While we uphold thy hands with prayer.
