share the Shepherd

share the path
as true disciples
be faithful
follow Christ
share the light
the bread, food,
we have been given
follow Christ
into the pasture
bring others with you
into that His arms
eternal rest

be more than sheep
but be faithful
share the light
we have been given
follow Christ
into the pasture
bring others with you
into that rest
share the path
follow Christ
share the bread
share the light

share the road
the way before us
what we have been given
follow Christ
into the pasture
where we will find
eternal life
share the protection
in the arms of the Savior
safe from the world
within the sheepfold
safe behind the gate

journey together
the way of salvation
share the path
the way before us
follow Christ
into the pasture
where we will find
eternal life
share the peace
within the pasture
behind the gate
in the arms of Christ

we will be, forever,
safe from the world
within the sheepfold
behind the gate
in the courts of eternity
the way of salvation
laid for us to offer
share the path
the way before us
into the pasture
where we will find
eternal life
