Like A Shepherd
Don Moen's song "Like a Shepherd" is a worship piece that draws on the biblical imagery of God as a shepherd and father. It emphasizes God's guidance, provision, and mercy through all seasons of life, from morning to evening. The lyrics speak of coming into God's presence, confessing Him as Lord, and being led by the Holy Spirit and nourished by His word. The song also references being seated at God's table, partaking of His love, and being children of His kingdom, purchased by His blood. It is a reassuring and comforting song about God's faithful care.
Like a father feeds
His children
Like a shepherd
Leads his flock
The Lord will
Always guide us
Show us where to walk
And in times when
We have plenty
In times when
We have not
He is our Provider
And His mercy
Never stops
Like a shepherd
He leads us
Like a father
He feeds us
From the morning
To the evening
Till the sunrise again
Like a shepherd
He leads us
Like a father
He feeds us
He is the great I AM
As we come
Into His presence
Confessing Him as Lord
His Holy Spirit leads us
And He feeds us
By His word
We're seated at His table
Partaking of His love
Children of His kingdom
Purchased by His blood
