My shepherd calls
I hear his voice
And then I have to make a choice
To follow him where ere He leads
Will I doubt or just believe
The path might lead
To pastures green
With rippling brook and shady tree
Where soft winds blow and flowers grow
And everything is flourishing
But then again the path might lead
Somewhere far less welcoming
With trials meant to challenge me
To stretch and grow and strengthen me
Where all seems dire and in the fire
I find you standing next to me
It doesn’t matter where we go
Through rain or shine or sleet or snow
He always does what's best for me
And I'll fulfill my destiny
If I stay close to Him
So when He calls
I hear His voice
I really do not have a choice
There's life and hope and peace and rest
Even when my life's a mess
I am still loved, I am still blessed
When walking by your side
