He is the good Shepherd And He’s laid down his life for His sheep So out of many nations He’s gathered one fold and one faith
And He has built His church On the rock foundation of faith On apostles and prophets Who shepherd the people in His place
CHORUS: There is one faith, one hope, and one baptism One God and Father of all There is one church, one body, one life in the Spirit Now given so freely to all
And He gave to Simon Peter And to all the twelve The keys of the Kingdom So darkness shall never prevail
But some of the shepherds Have pastured themselves on their sheep So He has come out against them And scattered His people of faith
(CHORUS)
In good pasture He will shepherd His people On the mountain top He feeds His sheep He will heal the poor and afflicted To the prisoner He brings release
(CHORUS)
Yet He’ll not forsake His people He’ll claim His sheep for His own He’ll send out His Word to the nations Regather His people back home
For He is the good Shepherd He’s laid down His life for His sheep So out of many nations He’s gathered one fold and one faith
