Just a Shepherd
by Sandra Graham © 2006

Just an aged sheep keeper,
But I recall -
A small baby boy, asleep in a stall.

The night sky was clear;
A star shone bright.
Angels praised God all thru the night.

Prophets foretold this wondrous birth;
How the Son of God would be born on earth.

Now I'm an old man, certainly blessed,
With my own eyes, I greeted
This heavenly Guest!
