Lyrics

Tender shepherd, tender shepherd
Watches over all his sheep
One, say your pray’rs, and two, close your eyes
And three, safe and happily fall asleep
Tender shepherd, tender shepherd
You forgot to count your sheep
One, in the meadow, two, in the garden
Three, in the nursery fast asleep
Tender shepherd, tender shepherd
You forgot to count your sheep
One, in the meadow, two, in the garden
Three, in the nursery fast asleep
