In tenderness the Shepherd sought
This sheep that’d gone astray
He followed in loves pursuit
Knowing I had lost my way
Quietly he whispered
Child, let’s head on to My home
I’ll forgive your sin, and save your soul
Thru My GRACE I will make you whole.
I listened to that voice that day
As He spoke in tender tone
Welcome to the sheepfold
From this day, you’ll never walk alone
You’ll hear my voice
My presence is your guarantee
You are my child, you’re mine by choice
Forevermore you can rejoice.
He laid down His life for me
He did it at Calvary
Forgiven of sin I was told
Forever I rest in His fold
I walk now on the mountains
In the valleys, o’er the plains
I walk now hand in hand with Jesus
He comforts in the midst of pains
I have no needs
That He will not meet
In this journey through my strife
Jesus is my Shepherd; Jesus is my Life.
