Jesu, ‘Wọ ti mbọ́ agbo Rẹ

English Yorùbá
Meter 8.7.8.7 Baptismu Omode
  1. Jesus, Thou that feedeth Thy flock
    Like the kind and good shepherd
    Who gives to them Thy tender care
    And embraces the young ones.

  2. Receive these children, we pray Thee
    Draw them to Thy dear embrace,
    We have the blest assurance that
    No evil can harm them there.

  3. There, they will never go astray,
    The lion will not hunt them,
    And let Thy compassionate love
    Be their portion all their life.

  4. In Thy green pastures up on high
    Let them find a place of rest;
    Let them eat the green, tender grass
    And drink waters of Thy love. Amen.
