My love is so young like a lamb from the fold
A promise to have a promise to hold
Till she’s old enough and the promise comes true
Shepherd of love here’s what you must do
Walk with her when she walks to school
Watching her when she breaks through
Until she’s mine for all time
As i know someday she’ll be
Shepherd of love watch over her for me
Shepherd of love watch over her for me
It’s only a page in the story of life
Till she’s old enough and i make her my wife
Make her wise and always keep her free from all harm
Until i can hold her safe in my arms
