Like a Shepherd

Bob Dufford, SJ

Ref:
Like a shepherd He feeds his flock, and gathers the lambs in His arms,
Holding them carefully close to His heart, leading them home.

Say to the cities of Judah:
"Prepare the way of the Lord."
Go to the mountaintop, lift your voice:
"Jerusalem, here is our God."

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

Come unto Me. if you are heavily burdened,
And take My yoke up on your shoulders,
I will give you rest.
