The Good Shepherd
“Truly I am the gate for the sheep.
Any who over the wall would leap
would alarm my flock
bring harm like a fox,
but over the fold good watch I keep.”
“I am the Good Shepherd, not a hired hand,
ready to die, a beast to withstand
for the sheep in my care.
For whatever the scare
I know my flock and they me understand.”
John 10.1-18
