Sheep and Shepherd

orchidee



Tune: Crimond

('The Lord's my Shepherd')

Linking with Psalm 23

**********

Find times of rest and quietness

The Lord seeks us to bless

Our good Shepherd leads us safely

In peace and harmony

 

What all we need to be doing

In daily life, each thing

Not overstrain ourselves, but be

In His will constantly

 

Await a while and take some ease

Some leisure as you please

Not taken up with things complex

Things that cause us to vex

 

Our faithful companion He be

E'er leading His sheep free

In pastures green, reviving springs

Strength, comfort to us brings

    I thought this would be a short hymn to go with a short church service

        Very sneaky my friend posting a coming attractions post then going in behind the scenes and editing a new poem to leave people feeling stupid for not having read it. I try to read all but if you had not been kind enough to give me warning I might have overlooked it. And a fine read indeed. I don't understand why you were trying to hide it. I told you it would be a fave
