Counting Sheep

His whole flock was in the field as He watched from above For in His heart they have been sealed by His great love And there they would graze as a very big part of their day The Shepherd in all their days until one up and went stray In knowing the others were okay He looked for the one lost Not able to hear what He'd say would come with certain cost Predators would soon come and inside he had reason to worry And the sheep being so dumb and everything looked so blurry But he suddenly would hear the shout from the Shepherd He heard His Voice so clear and he knew that exact Word Shooting off he went running as fast as he possibly could For that is what the Lord meant that each of us also should You will know His Voice for His Spirit He has placed inside It's your freewill and choice but the sheep ran to His side The dumbest animal of them all as you see God's humor Don't be the one to miss His Call in closing shut that door
