The Shepherd (Psalm 23)


THE SHEPHERD LOOKED AT THE STARS

SO CLEAR IN THE AIR

SO BRIGHT IN THE NIGHT

HE LOST HIMSELF

IN THE WONDER OF A GOD

WHO COULD CREATE A UNIVERSE

SO GREAT

I WONDER IF HE TENDS IT

LIKE I DO MY SHEEP

DOES HE FUSS WHEN THEY ARE SICK

CRY WHEN THEY DIE

BE ANGRY WHEN THEY ARE LOST

HAPPY WHEN THEY ARE FOUND

THE SHEPHERD SAT

AND WATCHED THE STARS

CONTENT

KNOWING THAT GOD

WAS SHEPHERDING HIM
