And his tongue shall be fillèd with praise.
He shall follow his sheep all the day,
How sweet is the shepherd's sweet lot!
For they know when their shepherd is nigh.
He is watchful while they are in peace,
For he hears the lambs' innocent call,
And he hears the ewes' tender reply;
From the morn to the evening he strays;
