A Shepherd's Thoughts

Living a life looking after my sheep being a shepherd all my days learning well the tools of the trade there on my knees daily prays But this baby I had came to see was spoken of by prophets of old the messiah that Isaiah spoke of come as the people had been told Here he was before my eyes Jesus the messiah came to save to shine his light into the dark for our sins this saviour gave This babe conceived by holy spirit is God himself covered by human skin to grow up as indeed son of man ?one day to die for humanity's sin This moment I never will forget my eyes like Simeon saw my salvation this is the love of God incarnate bringing to earth eternal redemption
