The Shepherd

Green is the pastures

That the good shepherd leads me through

As leaves of green blow by

The shepherd holds me tight

When light begins to fade

I munch dark green blades

After a very busy day

Green is the grass wet with morning dew

As I rise from my grassy bed

The Good Shepherd calls 

Come, follow me

I will give you everything you need

From a place where the sun sparkles

And where mercy finds my face

This says that God is powerful, full of grace, and compassionate. He has made all things

and we should respond with glory and reverence.
