lyrics

The Shepherd

We know her to be the shepherd
of our old, blind, broken-hearted flock.
We know her to be the shepherd
as our souls wind slowly 'round the clock.
We know her to be the shepherd
and we follow wherever she may roam.
We know her to be the shepherd
and she leads us so far from our home.

She's keeping the spark up,
a light upon us.
She knows that we can't see
in the dark.

We know her to be the shepherd
and the passion never leaves her eyes.
We know her to be the shepherd
and the spirits of the ancient ones will rise.
We know her to be the shepherd
as blue skies surrender to the night.
We know her to be the shepherd
and we know everything will be alright.

She's keeping the spark up,
a light upon us.
She knows that we can't see
in the dark.

We know her to be the shepherd
and we sleep in a peace that she bestows.
We know her to be the shepherd
and our dreams speak of what she and she alone knows.
We know her to be the shepherd...
We know her to be the shepherd...
We know her to be the shepherd...
We know her to be the shepherd...
