Shepherd
Amos Wilson (December 7, 2014)

The angels herald news
To certain shepherds – Jews
Why bother with these poor and weak?
But listen and you'll see.

The Christ would be as them,
A shepherd – unto men.
All nations then would be his sheep.
That's who he came to be.

And they were poor in life,
Thus also was the Christ.
He humbly in a manger sleeps.
That's how he came to be.

The needy Christ would aid,
By His own blood to save,
The shepherds then were most in need.
That's why he came to be.
