Shepherd of Shadai lyrics
MiThe Shepherd of Shadai
If I ever needed a Shepherd, Lord,
today would be the day;
You can come a little nearer,
Lord, I need to find my way.
Well, it seems I cannot listen.
I don’t even know what I need,
it appears I cannot follow
a Shepherd I can’t see.
But I hear the voice of the Shepherd,
I can feel the beat of his heart
pounding out a gentle rhythm
“Come exactly as you are.
I will teach you how to listen,
for I’ve known just how you feel.
It is Me you’re safe to follow,
and in Me you’re safe to heal.
If it is not safe to listen,
if you can’t come with your need,
it will never be safe to follow,
it will never be safe to lead.”
Jesus sweeps away the wreckage
of my shallow, listless life,
and I am hidden in the shelter
of the Shepherd of Shadai.
He still leads me to living waters,
and he wipes each tear from my eyes.
He’s the Lamb who’s also the Shepherd,
the Shepherd of Shadai.
I can hear the voice of the Shepherd
I can feel the beat of his heart
pounding out a gentle rhythm
“Come exactly as you are,
I will teach you how to listen,
what to say and how to speak.
You will lead, but you must follow
‘til God’s work here is complete.
It is Me you’re safe to follow,
and Me you’re safe to heal.”
