Good Shepherd of my soul
Come dwell within me
Take all I am and mould
Your likeness in me
Before the cross of Christ
This is my sacrifice
A life laid down and ready to follow
The troubled find their peace
In true surrender
The prisoners their release
From chains of anger
In springs of living grace
I find a resting place
To rise refreshed and ready to follow
I'll walk this narrow road
With Christ before me
Where thorns and thistles grow
And cords ensnare me
Though doubted and denied
He never leaves my side
But lifts my head and calls me to follow
And when my days are gone
My strength is failing
He'll carry me along
Through d**h's unveiling
Earth's struggles overcome
Heaven's journey just begun
To search Christ's depths and ever to follow
