My Shepherd
My shepherd, I have wandered from You
My heart is craving fantasy but found only vanity
My shepherd, I am calling to You
My strength can’t last in downpouring rains. My soul is deploring
In the storms that seem so strong
And the night just seems so long.
My shepherd, come and seek for my soulMy shepherd, bring me back to the fold
Where I am safe from thieves and wolves
And warmth enfolds through bitter coldMy Shepherd, bring my back to the fold
Where I am under Your tender care
And not in the Robber’s sly snare
My shepherd, bring me back to the foldMy shepherd, I have followed You
Through the meadows and the mountains along this earthly way
My shepherd, You have lead me through
Through the tempest tossed forest and beside the stormy bay
Through winds blowing strong
And through nights so long
My Shepherd, through whatever, lead us to You.Oh, Shepherd, I can’t wait to see the heavenly fold
Where all Your sheep will be gathered together
Oh, Shepherd, I can’t wait to see what those pastures hold
Where I’ll be safe in Your arms forever.
