A Sheep Amidst the Wolves

I send you out as a sheep

Amidst the wolves unprotected

You will come across evil

And things never expected

There will be times when you feel betrayed

And sometimes so neglected

My only hope is with this power

That you always respect it

You ask yourself what power

As you feel so lost

The power to believe in me

At any cost

The power to deal

With any kind of loss

Show the restraint that I did

While nailed on the cross

Now your eyes are wide open

You see why you’re here

God has covered you with this blanket

And taken your fear

You now understand your existence

The reasons are clear

It’s time to let go, but believe in

The things you hold dear

Anytime you feel alone

Just reach out for my hand

Because when no one else does

I will understand

I know these are times

That you never expected

I send you out as a sheep

Amidst the wolves unprotected.
