My shepherd is the Lord, He tends all my needs. By quiet streams he plants a

dream of peace and love for me. He shepherds me.

Sometimes when I’m afraid, sad and all alone, You make my tears disappear, with your touch of joy. You shepherd me.

You give me food to eat, bless me every day. You give me rest as your guest, forever in your home. You shepherd me.

My shepherd is the Lord, He tends all my needs. By quiet streams he plants a

dream of peace and love for me. He shepherds me.

T'was Grace that taughtmy heart to fear.And Grace, my fears relieved.How precious did that Grace appear.The hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares

We have already come.T'was Grace that brought us safethus far...and Grace will lead us home.

Colours of day dawn into the mind,The sun has come up,The night is behind.Go down in the city, into the street,and let's give the messageto the people we meet

Chorus:

So light up the fire and let the flame burn,Open the door, Let Jesus return,Take seeds of his Spirit, Let the fruit grow,Tell the people of Jesus Let his love show.

Open your eyesLook into the sky, The darkness has come, The sun came to die. The evening draws on, The sun disappears, But Jesus is living, And his Spirit is near.
