Lyrics

A Pastor's Heart  by Marsha Stevens-Pino and LeRoy Dysart<br />
<br />
I know that every morning, my name's on your lips in prayer, <br />
I know that when I'm reaching out, you'll struggle to be there. <br />
You don't travel a higher plane than those around you do, <br />
You simply let us know that Someone treads this one with you. <br />
<br />
Leader of our pilgrimage and teacher of our souls, <br />
You have offered nurture from the start, <br />
Jesus called us all to be a light unto the world, <br />
But we feel in your light a pastor's heart. <br />
<br />
You've labored as a midwife, taking part in each new birth, <br />
You teach us we can be a part of bringing peace on earth, <br />
You've fasted for our home and have in us such hunger stirred <br />
You've brought us Living Water and we've feasted on the Word. <br />
<br />
Pastor de mi espiritu y de mi corazon, <br />
Usted nos da direccion y amor, <br />
Jesus llamo usted para cuidar para nos, <br />
Por que tiene el corazon de un pastor. <br />
<br />
This shepherd knows the sheep by name, does not give in to hate, <br />
You risk your life to keep all enemies outside the gate, <br />
And yet you guide us tenderly and with matchmaker's prod, <br />
You help us plan our wedding feast and fall in love with God. <br />
<br />
Leader of our pilgrimage and teacher of our souls, <br />
You have offered nurture from the start, <br />
Called by Christ to lead this flock into eternal life <br />
For God has given you a pastor's heart. <br />
<br />
I have tried to follow your example from the start <br />
Shepherd of my spirit, and pastor of my heart. <br />
