OH MY SHEPHERD
128
VERSE 1
Oooooooh and loving shepherd, where were you
When I called out for you to help me
Were you too busy, too busy to visit
How could you have forgotten about me
When I had a problem oh so big
Did it seem, seem to you
That I was alright on my own
VERSE 2
You didn’t come when I was falling
And when I really, really needed you
Oooooh I was tempted beyond my strength
I had a burden I just couldn’t bear
Don't condemn me for not coming
Coming to church last Sunday
But please, please understand
That some of us need a helping hand
VERSE 3
Ooooooh I knew, I knew what was right
But I didn’t know how to do the right thing
Oooooh that’s why I hoped and prayed
I hoped that you would visit me
Ooooooh, Cos I needed, I needed to see you then
To hear your voice and have you pray for me
Oooooh and have you, have you visit me
Just as you did in the past
CHORUS
Oh, we all need a loving shepherd at one time or another
To pray, to pray for me, to visit me
And we all need the helping hand of a loving shepherd
Someone who will help me and lead me to the Lord
VERSE 4
Oooooooh and loving shepherd, tell me where were you
When I needed somebody to talk to
About a fault of mine
That I had carried around for so very long
I couldn't share it with just anybody
'Cause anybody, anybody wouldn't understand
And when I couldn't talk, talk with you
That's when I felt so all alone
VERSE 5
Ooooh I know, I know that you love me
But sometimes you don't know, you don’t know what it’s like
You don’t what I’ve been through
How hard it’s been for me to come out of sin
Ooooh, but I know, when I hear you counseling
And speaking the word of God to me
It’s like Jesus, Jesus healing me
And I feel so strong in the Lord
CHORUS
Ooooooooh, we all need a loving shepherd, at one time or another
To pray, to pray for me, to visit me
And we all need the helping hand of a loving, good shepherd
Someone who will help me and lead me to the Lord
