You're good shepherd 

You laid down life for me 

You're good shepherd 

You laid down life for me 

You're good shepherd 

You laid down life for me 


I say what kind of love ah love is this 

What kind of love is this 

Feel the shame I may bring You 

The many disappointments 

The grace you've poured on me oh oh oh 

See am unworthy yet You still 

A bring me in Your glory 


You're good shepherd 

You laid down life for me 

You're good shepherd 

You laid down life for me 

You're good shepherd 

You laid down life for me 


Who am i, am i 

That You would visit me 

You sacrificied to buy my freedom 

You leave the 99 to rescue me in times of trouble oh oh oh oh 

Lead me besides still waters 

Till my cup is running over 


You're good shepherd 

You laid down life for me 

You're good shepherd 

You laid down life for me 

You're good shepherd 

You laid down life for me 


Again and again, again and again 

You rescue me 

You rescue me 

You're good shepherd 

You laid down life for me
