The Gate

If someone sneaks over the wall
Dodging the gate of the sheep stall
Must be a thief and a robber
The gate is the way that’s proper

Through the gate is the shepherd’s choice
And the sheep recognize His voice
So He calls his own sheep by name
And to follow Him is their aim

A stranger they just won’t follow
Deceptive voices won’t swallow
But for them His words were too deep
He said, I’m the gate for the sheep

Before me were robbers and thieves
Their words any true sheep just leaves
Those who come through me will be saved
With the abundant life they’ve craved

John 10:1-10
