To know the shepherd
claiming the psalmist’s words,
“The Lord is my shepherd”,
the creator, awesome God
my personal shepherd
guiding me on the path
through the trials, the valleys,
the shadows of life
Feeling his presence
walking with me
beside me,
my loving brother
bringing me to the father
at the end of my days
