The Keeper of the GateJohn 10:7-18 Christ is the good shepherd, He is the keeper of the gate; And His voice is the Word, The sheep give an ear to wait. He is the door and is the way, For through Him is salvation; Abide in Him never to stray, As to be your firm foundation. In Christ freely pass through, Your coming out or going in; Wolves are blocked from you, For stealing you while within. As the Father said He was sent, To give his life for the sheep; For it was totally the intent, He kept watch as they sleep. Not one sheep would be lost. As the shepherd kept vigil; Even though His life it cost, Ensuring no entry of evil. Richard Newton Sherrer Copyright ©2005 Richard Newton Sherrer Vote for this poem
