lyrics
Verse 1
Christ our Shepherd, ever good and glorious
giving to His flock good land to graze.
In His pasture we will want for nothing,
near the waters He will keep us safe.
He restores us with His loving presence,
goodness and mercy for all our days.
He delivers us from darkest places
to the pasture of unending grace.
Verse 2
Christ our Shepherd will bind up the wounded,
giving strength to all the weak and frail.
Straying sheep He has pursued and rescued,
He will hold us in his tender care.
We will feast within His house forever,
free from all harm of the enemy.
We will drink the cup of life abundant
in the pasture where He reigns as king.
Verse 3
Christ our Shepherd died to save His lost ones,
laying down His life of His accord.
See our shepherd on the cross to claim us;
we may live because His blood was poured.
Rising, He will lead to life eternal;
our every sin, every grief He bears.
He has broken every bond that held us,
freed to live within His pasture fair.
Verse 4
Christ our Shepherd He will go before us,
listen to His voice He knows your name.
Through the darkest valley He will bring us,
rod and staff to guide the narrow way.
We are His, oh what a joy to follow
till every tear He has wiped away.
Christ our Shepherd He will lead us homeward
to the pasture of unending days.
