Shepherds Voice

D7  G
       D                G
When I was fresh, from God,
D                                        G
the first thing I heard as I came into this life,
D                       G                     D
the sound of fear, ringing in my ear my own voice,
G
as life hit me and I cried,
D
As I grew through the years,
 G
the chorus of temptation,
D                           G
beckoned me to come and sing apart,
  D
But Jesus was his name,
     G
that broke from my mamaw's tongue,
                      C
 and settled in my heart

Am                                 D
And what I'm listening for, through all the noise,
Am                   D           C
a whisper in my ear, the shepherd's voice.

D                                    G
The confusion that the bustle brings, the pretty song the siren sings,
D                                    G
The sound of teeth against forbidden fruit,
D                                  G
A fallen man who screams in pain, a groaning earth beneath the strain
D                                   C
Who could hope to ever hear the truth,

Am                                   D
And what I'm listening for, through all the noise,
 Am          D                          C
A whisper in my ear, the shepherd's voice.

D                                   G                  D
When I am tired and I am weary, of this life and I am done
D                                     G                         C
I will close my eyes, and let my spirit still, till I hear the Son

Am                               D             C
And what I'm listening for, through all the noise,
Am                         D           C
a whisper in my ear, the shepherd's voice.
Am                                 D            C
And what I'm listening for, through all the noise,
Am             D                       F
a whisper in my ear, the shepherd's voice.
