The Shepherd of My Fathers

Calling on the shepherd
the God of our ancestors
to bless and watch over the children,
the people down to this day

Guiding the flock, wayward and foolish
humble and human
lovingly, when we have gone astray
into the fold, the garner,
the family, to our reward
at the end of the age
