The Good Shepherd
THE GOOD SHEPHERD
There once was a flock that was lost and afraid
It wandered around without direction for days
But the Lord looked down with compassion from above
And sent a good Shepherd to lead them with love
The Shepherd was kind, loving and wise
And He cherished his whole flock, no matter the color or the size
Though the Shepherd was quiet, humble and meek
Every ear listened whenever He would speak
He showed them the way to walk in the light
And He prayed every day for God to give them true sight
He taught them about the blood of the Lamb
And about the Creator, the great I AM
They flourished and they grew through the knowledge they gained
About the Saviour from above who lived without blemish or stain
The flock was so thankful to the Lord up above
For sending a wise leader who was so full of love
He lead them with a strong and gentle good hand
And took the whole flock safely into God's Promise Land
