The Shepherd’s Arms (Solemn Uplifting)

Verse 1

I counted every doorway in the rain

Calling through the hills where you had strayed

One small print beside the broken gate

One quiet heart I would not leave to fate

Pre-Chorus

Though the night was long

Though the road was steep

I knew your name

I knew my sheep

Chorus

I will find you, I will carry you

Close against my heart where fear can’t stay

Through the thorn and dust, through the deepest dark

I will bring my wandering child safely home

At the cross, I paid the cost

Love has made a way

Verse 2

You were hiding underneath your shame

Thinking you were too far gone to claim

But I saw the tears you could not show

And I came down every road you know

Pre-Chorus

When your strength was gone

When your hope grew thin

I reached for you

And called you in

Chorus

I will find you, I will carry you

Close against my heart where fear can’t stay

Through the thorn and dust, through the deepest dark

I will bring my wandering child safely home

At the cross, I paid the cost

Love has made a way

Bridge

The wounds that marked my hands and side

Became the door thrown open wide

No distance now, no debt remains

Grace is calling out your name

Final Chorus

I have found you, I will carry you

Set your weary feet upon the way

Every scar and tear is redeemed in me

You are held forever, safely home with me

At the cross, I paid the cost

Death has lost its claim

Outro

Rest now, little one, beneath my care

The Shepherd’s arms will hold you there
