Shepherd

It came upon a day so clear
That I could see heaven from here
A letter from an angel said that
I should lead the innocent

Oh Lord, make a shepherd out of me
Oh Lord, make a shepherd out of me

Never was inclined to keep
Any soul upon a leash
Help me shield the child to find
He's safe in slumber keeps

Oh Lord, make a shepherd out of me
Oh Lord, make a shepherd out of me

Teach me to be faithful
Teach me to be kind
Lead me to the table
Where your wisdom I may find

Oh Lord, make a shepherd out of me
Oh Lord, make a shepherd out of me

Teach me to be faithful
Teach me to be kind
Lead me to the table
Where your wisdom I may find
Keep me ever mindful
With a watchful eye
Deep within to understand
Your way beyond me by

Oh Lord, make a shepherd out of me
Oh Lord, make a shepherd out of me
Oh Lord, make a shepherd out of me
Oh Lord, make a shepherd out of me
Oh Lord, make a shepherd out of me
