YouTube video: The Shepherd is Calling, hymn

Text:
The Shepherd is calling
To gather His sheep.
Protecting from peril,
His lambs He will keep.
Though the darkness creeps closer
And bitter the night,
Those who follow the Shepherd
Find comfort and light.
Amen and Amen. Amen.

The Shepherd is calling
To find those who stray.
He's calling them homeward
And showing the way.
He can bear any burden
And lift any load.
He has climbed ev'ry mountain,
And walked ev'ry road.
Amen and Amen. Amen.

The Shepherd is calling
His friends to the field,
To help find and gather
His sheep as revealed.
Those who work with The Shepherd
Show each lamb His love,
Then enfold in green pastures
In flocks formed above.
Amen and Amen. Amen.
