Shepherd of the Lord S Flock

Shepherd of the Lord's flock
Is placed by the Father; 
Leading the Church Of Christ
With God's laws or order.

The valiant minister
Preaches love, hope, and faith; 
He works each day and night
To praise one God so great. 

The steward of the Church
Feeds our soul and spirit; 
Teaching us the good news
With power and with wit.

The guardian of our faith
Keeps us good, safe and sound; 
Guiding us with wisdom
To brave the battleground.

The leader of the fold
Fulfills his divine task; 
Undaunted by fatigue, 
He almost doesn't bask.

The pastor of the sheep
Cares with much compassion; 
His heart does long for the
Chosen ones' salvation.

Nothing can hinder him, 
Neither storm nor big block; 
Thank God for giving us
Shepherd of the Lord's flock.
