YPJ & FVC - Shepherd lyrics
Be honest, there's a point in every believers life That we feel as though the Lord is unconcerned with our frustrations, our problems and our dilemmas It is in this moment of discouragement that we back into a corner and ask this question Where is my shepherd I'm lost without a clue The wolves are after me My fleece is so filthy It's cold and dark The flock seems far away I'm waiting for the day to come home For I don't know which way's East, West, South or North Shepherd please come looking for me Where is my shepherd I'm wounded and abused My eyes are filled with tears The hours seem like years I'm so confused I know that God is not the author of confusion but I can't figure this out My heart is hurting bad I miss the time we had I should have stayed With the flock, but ignorance led me away Shepherd please come looking for me I know it's hard to believe, but even pastors and leaders ask sometimes Where is my shepherd Come on sing, Edna I thought He really cared But I'm alone and scared Life's treating me unfair I'm standing still And I wish right now His presence I could feel Shepherd please come looking for me Then the Lord speaks out and says I was there all alone I never would desert you I was there standing strong So no one here could hurt you And I know sometimes it seems I'm far away Have you ever felt as though the Lord was far away but Yet I'm always there to answer when you pray I hear the Lord saying that if my people who are called by my name would humble themselves and pray They would always know that I am your shepherd There's no need to look for another Regardless of our heart, the devil tries to make you believe he is not there His word plainly states He has promised to never leave us nor forsake us Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today and forever If He was with you then He is with you now I know it hurts but you got to have confidence in knowing that I am your shepherd The Lord is my shepherd and I shall not want, say His name Jesus, You're my shepherd I've got to stop questioning You and just trust You Jesus, You're my shepherd I'm not particularly fond of my situation but Jesus, You're my shepherd I've got to believe that You've got it all in control Jesus, You're my shepherd And I know what some of you are saying right now, that's easier said than done If you only knew how he was treating me or she was treating me Or what they said or how frustrated I am If you only knew my dilemma, if you only knew my situation Well, I don't need to know because there's a man who knows it and his name is Jesus, He's your provider Jesus, He's your helper Jesus, He can be your lover Jesus, more than just a friend, call His name Jesus, He's the love of my soul, call Him Jesus, it's not just a cliche, there's nobody like Him Jesus, can't nobody love you like Jesus Jesus, can't nobody love you like Jesus Jesus, He's my father my help and I need Him Jesus, You're my shepherd Wipe the tears out of your eyes and pick your face up and know Jesus, You're my shepherd That Jesus, He's your shepherd Earlier that day Alright from the top, this time the one chord and airing for the performance tomorrow I want you to do the chorus in harmony, let's try it Say what, I know my God can do all things Good Say what, give me mansions, cars and diamond rings Say what, He heals my body when I'm ill Say what, my cup on the daily He refills Say what, He comforts me when I'm feeling sad Say what, He gives me things I never had Say what, some people said He wouldn't do it for me Just cause I live it and I'll receive that my response to that is Say what Good, that baseline was crazy I'd like, listen, tomorrow we come up in here, let's make sure that we go over the choreography At Sunday we do the concert at nine, I want you all to be ready, yeah what you're doing right now so Good rehearsal today, thank you ladies and gentlemen Run about your business and see you all Sunday
