Little Lamb (written for a friend)

Once a little lamb lay weary
Not as fast as all the rest
Born of a simpler stature
Not to cope among the best

One day the Sheperd found her
Un-nourished, close to death
The Sheperd's eyes grew teary
As He clutched her to his chest

The Sheperd drew compassion
From compassions holy well
And the little lamb saw love
As her plight had been dispelled

That little lamb loved her Sheperd
After being so hard pressed
Somehow the Sheperd saw in her
That she was special amongst the rest

Oh, what love to know the Sheperd
To know true love's divine
How for one sick, stray he'll wander
Out from the ninety-nine

Author notes

Just blending an idea I had, thoughts of a friend, and two Bible stories together.  I hope it came out o.k.
