OUR SHEPHERD

"(A Psalm of David.) The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want."

Psalms 23:1
King James Version

Sadie Carney wrote the beautiful hymn "LEAD US GENTLY". I'm so glad we can depend on our Shepherd to lead us and protect us.

"Blessèd Savior, lead us gently Thro’ the rugged paths of life; Lead us thro’ the vale of shadows, From this world of sin and strife. Lead us, Jesus, thro’ the shadows To that bright eternal life; Lead us thro’ the vale of shadows, From this world of sin and strife."

After Jesus leads us, we need to follow Him. George W. Collins wrote a beautiful hymn about following Jesus "FOLLOW ALL THE WAY". I'm so glad we have a Saviour we can follow.

"I have heard my Savior calling, I have heard my Savior calling, I have heard my Savior calling, Take thy cross and follow, follow Me.

Tho’ He leads me thro’ the garden, Tho’ He leads me thro’ the garden, Tho’ He leads me thro’ the garden, I’ll go with Him, with Him all the way."

If you haven't already given your heart to Jesus, please do it now and take up your cross and follow Him. He died to save us. The least we can do is follow Him and serve Him. I love You, Jesus. Thank You for all You have done for me.
