[@robertdenos3643]

my favotita song

[@klarizzasarical4422]

1. Dear to the heart of the Shepherd, Dear are the sheep of his fold; Dear is the love that he gives them, Dearer than silver or gold. Dear to the heart of the Shepherd, Dear are his “other” lost sheep; Over the mountains he follows, Over the waters so deep. [Chorus] Out in the desert they wander, Hungry and helpless and cold; Off to the rescue he hastens, Bringing them back to the fold. 2. Dear to the heart of the Shepherd, Dear are the lambs of his fold; Some from the pastures are straying, Hungry and helpless and cold. See, the Good Shepherd is seeking, Seeking the lambs that are lost, Bringing them in with rejoicing, Saved at such infinite cost. [Chorus] Out in the desert they wander, Hungry and helpless and cold; Off to the rescue he hastens, Bringing them back to the fold. 3. Dear to the heart of the Shepherd, Dear are the “ninety and nine”; Dear are the sheep that have wandered Out in the desert to pine. Hark! he is earnestly calling, Tenderly pleading today: “Will you not seek for my lost ones, Off from my shelter astray?” [Chorus] Out in the desert they wander, Hungry and helpless and cold; Off to the rescue he hastens, Bringing them back to the fold. 4. Green are the pastures inviting; Sweet are the waters and still. Lord, we will answer thee gladly, “Yes, blessed Master, we will! Make us thy true under-shepherds; Give us a love that is deep. Send us out into the desert, Seeking thy wandering sheep.” [Chorus] Out in the desert they wander, Hungry and helpless and cold; Off to the rescue we’ll hasten, Bringing them back to the fold.

Dear to the Heart of the Shepherd Calmly 1.Dear to the heart of the Shepherd, Dear are the sheep of his fold; Dear is the love that he gives them, Dearer than silver or gold. Dear to the heart of the Shepherd, Dear are his “other” lost sheep; Over the mountains he follows, Over the waters so deep. Out in the desert they wander, Hungry and helpless and cold; Off to the rescue he hastens, Bringing them back to the fold. 2.Dear to the heart of the Shepherd, Dear are the lambs of his fold; Some from the pastures are straying, Hungry and helpless and cold. See, the Good Shepherd is seeking, Seeking the lambs that are lost, Bringing them in with rejoicing, Saved at such infinite cost. Out in the desert they wander, Hungry and helpless and cold; Off to the rescue he hastens, Bringing them back to the fold. 3.Dear to the heart of the Shepherd, Dear are the “ninety and nine”; Dear are the sheep that have wandered Out in the desert to pine. Hark! he is earnestly calling, Tenderly pleading today: “Will you not seek for my lost ones, Off from my shelter astray?” Out in the desert they wander, Hungry and helpless and cold; Off to the rescue he hastens, Bringing them back to the fold. 4.Green are the pastures inviting; Sweet are the waters and still. Lord, we will answer thee gladly, “Yes, blessed Master, we will! Make us thy true under-shepherds; Give us a love that is deep.

[@faniedube5040]

Would like to get in touch with these singers

[@churchofjesuschrist]

This is the Tabernacle Choir on Temple Square. They act as goodwill ambassadors for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, sometimes nicknamed LDS or Mormon. You can listen to more music by the Tabernacle Choir, including a free weekly program each Sunday, at www.thetabernaclechoir.org/ You can learn more about the Church at comeuntochrist.org?cid=42001274 . See the link below for information about joining the Tabernacle Choir: www.thetabernaclechoir.org/about/faqs.html#join

[@spencerpiercy1]

​@@churchofjesuschrist I get where you're going with your answer, but to be accurate, it's a men's choir comprising of members of institute in SLC.

[@antonelladivannidibiaggio7684]

muchos besitos para todos esos jovenes que componen este coro. me gustaría ser novia de algunos de ellos y así llegar pura a la noche de bodas con algunos de estos jovenes mormones. desde chile....ANTONELLA DI VANNI DI BIAGGIO, edad 27 sin hijos sin novio y aun no he sido casada.....

[@stevenjamieson8541]

Does anyone know where I can find the sheet music for this arraignment, or any version with these lyrics?

[@p.ryanbowen2357]

The information provided in the May 2012 Ensign magazine is, "arr. Beebe, pub. Larice." I was able to locate it with a quick search using that information. Available for SATB or TTBB.

[@ratu-melilagilagi8893]

Lds hymns

[@voceval1]

That was beautiful! Are Christians the only group or faith that sing hymns of praise in a choir...do other religions sing as they do?

[@jacobbelo9265]

I'm not to familiar with other religions, but these guys are from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We definitely do a lot of singing at church, and in choirs. If you're interested to learn more about us, you can go to lds.org which has a lot of information. And if you would like missionaries (basically people that teach about our church) to come and visit you in person, to answer questions and explain whatever you'd like to know, you can request them to come visit you at www.mormon.org/missionaries (it doesn't cost anything, just so you know).

[@The_Maori_Taro_Planter]

Couldn't say though.... but I'm glad you like the music!

[@margaritalucas8002]

They need to smile! Sometimes too much reverence kills the Spirit . The Holly Spirit supposed to move you .

[@Nita1931]

Check for the meaning of the word reverence. Reverence leads to the Spirit, whether you are smiling or not.
