Rescue Me

Shepherd

do you hear me

bleating in the woods?

I cannot move

I cannot find my way out

you see…

I wandered off

looking for my

own way

free to

be me

looking for my

value

in what I see

searching for

an identity

and now I am lost

in a place

I do not know

the thicket

and thorns

of what is hidden

caught me

tangled me

in its trap

Oh, Shepherd

do you hear me

bleating in the woods?

come Oh, Shepherd

come rescue me.

In Your righteousness deliver me and rescue me;

Incline Your ear to me and save me.

Psalm 71:2
