Like a Shepherd (Bob Dufford)

Refrain:

Like a shepherd he feeds his flock,
And gathers the lambs in his arms.
Holding them carefully close to his heart,
Leading them home.

1. Say to the cities of Judah prepare the way of the Lord
Go to the mountain top lift your voice
Jerusalem here is your God.

2. I myself will shepherd them
For others have led them astray.
The lost I will rescue and heal their wounds
And pasture them giving them rest.

3. Come unto me if you are heavily burdened
And take my yoke upon your shoulders,
I will give you rest.
