Lead me

Susan Hay McGuire

Dear Father-Mother, Shepherd, I've felt
Your tender nudge,
And yielded to Your pathway, though
at first I wouldn't budge.
You provide me with "green pastures"
rich with spiritual ideas that nourish.
Your Love destroys all fear and doubt—
in confidence Your flock will flourish!
When we're weary of worldly suggestions
loudly professing to know what's best,
Truth's clear light guides us to "still waters,"
where all are safe and find sweet rest.
