The Finest Flock
The Finest Flock
Was shepherd on high hills on a plain?
Even after it soon had started to rain
While caring for the lamb and sheep
Until he would go into a deep sleep.
Sheep now appeared here and there
Next thing you know were everywhere
One did die and read on his epitaph
Thank God for shepherd giving me a bath.
He left many little ones far behind
Who I am so sure would not mind
If I added them up and took stock
Of sheep who were his finest flock.
