Send them shepherds

Open your hearts,
closed purse strings
open your eyes
your sisters, brothers hurting
needing the joy,
the help of our Savior
lost in the world
other sheep of the shepherd

Send them shepherds
to reach the other sheep
to gather in the last
into the keep
offer your witness
the wealth God has given
give to the ministry
to heal more sheep
