The Goat Herder's Prayer
This night, the feedin' all now done, I bow my head in Prayer,
And Thank you, God, with my whole heart, for always being there.
I remember this morning, as the sun first broke, when I called in the herd,
How precious it was to hear YOUR voice ...
like my goats listening for MY word.
They ran from scattered all about, excited just to see me,
Me standing there beside the barn with buckets of feed.
I know they place their trust in me, to meet their needs and care.
This 'ol barn would be an empty shell were I not waiting for them there.
Ain't that how it is with us, God? Like between them goats and me?
Life's journey would be so empty, IF YOU weren't there with me.
So I thank You, Lord, for every goat that you've placed in my care,
And for every lesson that I've learned in this journey that we share.
For the miracle of life ... and ... of sacrifice that some are called to serve
For we are all your creatures ... together here,
And You ... The Master Shepherd.
