The sheep need love and tender care,
And so the shepherd’s love they share.
Of his own voice they are so fond,
To no one else will they respond.
Inside the fold.
He enters through the door, by choice,
They follow him, they know his voice,
Their every need he does supply,
On his great love they can rely.
Safe in the fold.
Now Jesus is the door He said,
So we can enter and be fed.
He will to us salvation give,
We will with Him forever live.
In Jesus’ fold.
He is the Shepherd and will keep,
The safety of each precious sheep.
He knows each one, and died for all,
That all might hear and heed His call.
Outside the fold.
Now do you wander aimlessly,
Without a Shepherd you can see?
Then Jesus wants to love you, too,
And guide and keep each thing you do.
Come in the fold.
