The Good Shepherd
From fear of the wolf and the lion,
The Good Shepherd frees.
Into pastures of joy and plenty,
The Good Shepherd leads.
From the pain of loneliness,
The Good Shepherd consoles.
Into everlasting love and joy,
The Good Shepherd enrolls.
You call us friend,
Though Creator God.
You call us brethren,
Though Lord of All.
We bow,
We bend our knees,
We worship You:
The Good Shepherd of all.
