Just as the day was breakin'
Jesus stood there by the sea
None of us aboard that boat
Could tell that it was He
Suddenly our net was full
As full as it could be
And John said it's the Lord
And I rushed to Him by the sea
On the shore, we ate with Him
Just like in days gone by
The words that passed between us
I'll remember till I die
He said, Simon, do you love me more
Than all these others do?
I said, Lord, you have no closer friend
My love for you is true
Then He told me, feed my sheep
Feed my sheep
Feed my sheep
Feed my sheep
As if He disbelieved me
He asked me twice again
Till I said, Lord, You know everything
You know I am Your friend
If you're my friend, He said
You'll do the things I say
To love my sheep as I do
Till I come for them that day
Then He told me, feed my sheep
Feed my sheep
Feed my sheep
Just feed my sheep
Words of love are easy
Actions make it real
Promises are worthless
It depends on how ya feel
A hireling just earns wages
And he runs when wolves come near
The shepherd guards his charges
And never yields to fear
All He said was, feed my sheep
Feed my sheep
Feed my sheep
Feed my sheep
Feed my sheep
If you love Me, feed my sheep
If you really love Me, feed my sheep
Feed my sheep
Feed my sheep
Feed my sheep
Feed my sheep
Feed my sheep
Feed my sheep
Just feed my sheep
