Like a Shepherd. Text: Isaiah, Ezekiel, Matthew; Bob Dufford, SJ. Tune: Bob Dufford, SJ; acc. by Sr. Theophane Hytrek, OSF. (c) 1976, Robert J. Dufford, SJ, and OCP.

REFRAIN: Like a shepherd He feeds his flock
and gathers the lambs in His arms,
holding them carefully close to His heart, 
leading them home.

Say to the cities of Judah:
Prepare the way of the Lord.
Go to the mountaintop, lift your voice;
Jerusalem, here is your God.

I Myself will shepherd them,
for others have led them astray.
The lost I will rescue and heal their wounds
and pasture them, giving them rest.

Come unto Me 
if you are heavily burdened,
And take My yoke up on your shoulders,
I will give you rest.
