Beschreibung
This is a setting of traditional verses adapt for concert venues or Communion moments at masses. The music is originally written by Wolfgang Amedeus Mozart (18th c.) on a German song: Bundeslied, and set to the text of "The Good Shepherd" in this arrangement for three voices and organ.
Jesu, shepherd of the sheep:
Thou thy flock in safety keep,
living bread, thy life supply:
Strengthen us, or else we die,
Fill us with celestial grace.
Thou, who feedest us below:
Source of all we have or know:
Grant that with Thy Saints above,
Sitting at the feast of love.
We may see Thee face to face. Amen.
