You're the shepherd of my heart so treat it tenderly
It's a heart that needs your ever loving 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
