Songs for the First Confession
My Shepherd is the Lord:
My Shepherd is the Lord
He tends all my needs
By quiet stream, He plants a dream
Of peace and love for me.
He shepherds me.
Sometimes when I’m afraid
Sad and all alone
You make my tears disappear
With your touch of joy.
You shepherd me.
You give me food to eat,
Bless me every day
You give me rest as your guest
Forever in your home
You shepherd me.
My Shepherd is the Lord
He tends all my needs
By quiet stream, He plants a dream
Of peace and love for me.
He shepherds me.
He shepherds me.
I'm Sorry, God
God wraps us in his love each day,
Speaks gently to us on our way
Even when we disobey,
God's love is always there,
God loves us every day.
1.
Sometimes God I do not care,
I'm selfish and I do not share
I'm sorry God
Now I've come to know....
2.
Sometimes God I tell a lie,
Or hurt my friends and make them cry
I'm sorry God
Now I've come to know....
3.
When I'm angry, God, I shout
I scream, I stamp and I give out
I'm sorry God
Now I've come to know
Circle of Friends
You have friends, you are not alone.
Thanks to them, you're not on your own.
You are strong, even when you feel small.
From the rain, they will shelter you.
In your pain, they will comfort you.
They will always pick you up when you fall.
Chorus:
Circle of friends, all around you.
Circle of friends, strong and true.
Circle of friends, always there for you
Even when, you are far apart.
To your friends, you're joined heart to heart.
Far away, you are not on your own.
You're not there, but they think of you.
In their prayers, they remember you.
You are never ever truly alone.Share this Post
