Gracious Good Shepherd Lyrics
Vanessa Williams
Gracious good shepherd
Do you really know who I am
Gracious good shepherd
Will you answer when I call your name
Gracious good shepherd
You can hear confusion crying out
Gracious good shepherd
What little faith I have, I am ashamed
I visualize a manger
All freezing in bitter cold
I can not believe the love there
What heavenly sacrifice
Gracious good shepherd
If you hear me now I love you so
Gracious good shepherd
Why for me
Gracious good shepherd
You say you love the lost one
Gracious good shepherd
I believe that one is me
Some tell me the virgin birth
Is a beautiful ancient tail
But you tell me god's conciliation
Lead all to the living well
Gracious good shepherd
If you hear me now I love you so
Gracious good shepherd
Why why for me
Gracious good shepherd
Do you really know who I am
Gracious good shepherd
Will you answer when I call your name
Gracious good shepherd
These are different times I'm sure you see
Gracious good shepherd
We need you now
Do you really know who I am
Gracious good shepherd
Will you answer when I call your name
Gracious good shepherd
You can hear confusion crying out
Gracious good shepherd
What little faith I have, I am ashamed
I visualize a manger
All freezing in bitter cold
I can not believe the love there
What heavenly sacrifice
Gracious good shepherd
If you hear me now I love you so
Gracious good shepherd
Why for me
Gracious good shepherd
You say you love the lost one
Gracious good shepherd
I believe that one is me
Some tell me the virgin birth
Is a beautiful ancient tail
But you tell me god's conciliation
Lead all to the living well
Gracious good shepherd
If you hear me now I love you so
Gracious good shepherd
Why why for me
Gracious good shepherd
Do you really know who I am
Gracious good shepherd
Will you answer when I call your name
Gracious good shepherd
These are different times I'm sure you see
Gracious good shepherd
We need you now
