How many kings step down from their thrones?
How many lords have abandoned their homes?
How many greats have become the least for me?

He tends his flock like a shepherd: He gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them close to his heart; he gently leads those that have young. - Isaiah 40:11

“With that we face the shocking reality. Jesus stands at the door and knocks. He asks for help in the form of a beggar, a down-and-out, a man in ragged clothes, someone who is sick, even a criminal in need of our love. He meets you in every person you encounter in need. So long as there are people around, Christ walks the earth as your neighbor, as the one through whom God calls to you, demands of you, makes claims upon you. That is the great seriousness of the Advent message and its great blessing. Christ stands at the door. He lives in the form of people around us.

The words of the wise prod us to live well. They're like nails hammered home, holding life together. They are given by God, the one Shepherd.  - Ecclesiastes 12:11 MSG

Gentle shepherd come and lead us
For we need You to help us find our way
In the day when our ears are bombarded by beckoning voices
And our world is polluted with sound
Lord, let us hear you

- Gentle Shepherd 

We are Thine, do Thou befriend us,
Be the guardian of our way

- Saviour, Like a Shepherd Lead Us

The words of the wise prod us to live well. They’re like nails hammered home, holding life together. They are given by God, the one Shepherd. - Ecclesiastes 12:11

There in the valley, along the narrow way
