The Good Shepherd Lyrics

Quietly He speaks to me.
Gently He leads me.
Lovingly the Shepherd carries me.
He carries me hidden safely in His bosom
I feel His love inside when other times, my friend, I couldn't.
He knows just what's best for me;
The Good Shepherd knows, He knows
Just what I need.

Quietly He speaks.
Gently the Master leads.
So lovingly He carries me to
A safe place of rest.
And I feel the Master's unconditional love,
Everlasting love,
Ever so deeply inside of me.
I'm so glad Jesus knows
Just what's best for me.

The Good Shepherd knows --
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil, for Jesus is with me.
He leads me, He guides me, He hides me
In the shelter of His arms;
He holds me there.
The Good Shepherd knows
Just what I need.
