The Good Shepherd
by Mary Van Nattan
Psalm
23:1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie
down in green pastures:
he leadeth me beside the still waters.
A
silent pool, a deep refreshing draught, |  |
 | A
pasture green of richest grass so rare, That all abide in satisfaction there - This shall be thine, Oh, hungering sheep of Jesus. |
A
quiet resting place, a cool retreat, |  |
 | A
strong Deliverer, a faithful Guide, A tower of refuge, a wall on every side - These shall be thine, Oh, fearful sheep of Jesus. |
A
Shepherd kind, a Friend forever true, A gentle touch, a comforting word to you - These shall be yours, Oh, suffering flock of Jesus. |
 |
 | A
warm embrace, a folding safe within, |
John
10:11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep...
14
I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
