Like a Shepherd

Bob Dufford, SJ

                 
Antiphon:

Like a shepherd He feeds His flock
And gathers the lambs in His arms,
Holding them carefully close to His heart,
Leading them home.

                 I
Say to the cities of Judah;
Prepare the way of the Lord.
Go to the mountain top, lift your voice
Jerusalem here is your God.

                II
I say myself will shepherd them,
For others have led the astray.
The lost I will rescue and heal their wounds
And pasture them, giving them rest.

                III
Come unto Me         
If you are heavily burdened,
And take My yoke upon your shoulders,
I will give you rest.
