Greetings! Let me introduce myself....I am a middle-aged (whatever that means now!),mother of 5 and married to a wonderful man. I love to write and sing about the wonderful things that God has done and is doing for us, His children. I also enjoy writing worship songs to aid in bringing others into a deeper relationship with Jesus. I hope you like these songs as well.

Lyrics

Following the Shepherd - ©2006 Lyrics - Gail Mills  Music - Heather Duncan



                Dsus                            C
Verse 1:  It's a “Bible Story” in many a way
    Dsus                     C
My paren'ts life, up to this day
   G                                A
The Lord has been their loving guide
  D/F#                             E
As they've served Him, side by side
  Dsus                 C
Fifty years ago they said, “I do”
Dsus                           C
Sealing their vows, to one another true
   G                                      A
Accepting each blessing that came their way
  D/F#                                 E
From the birth of a child to a bright new day
                    A                           G
Chorus:  “Take My hand and don't let go
      A                        G
When you're tired, we'll go slow
    D                               A/C#
One step at a time, following My lead
   Bm                G                         A       D
Be anxious for nothing, I'll meet your need”
                  











                          Dsus                                        C
Verse 2:  Over the years, loved ones have come and gone
Dsus                  C
Still our Lord has led them on
   G                                      A
Through various trials and into His joy
D/F#                             E
Welcoming each day as His to enjoy
   Dsus                              C
And here we are, gathered in celebration
   Dsus                                 C
Sharing those memories with tears and elation
G                                           A
God holds the future as they seek Him in prayer
   D/F#                                                         E
“The Lord is their Shepherd” as He leads them there
