Have you ever seen a herd of sheep
With no lambs within the fold
Shepherds sure would be concerned
That their flocks would get too old
Sheep that are not reproducing
Not adding numbers to their kind
Will cause the herd to dwindle
Down to nothing in due time
If you want the flock to flourish
To grow in number and in size
Surely lambs are always needed
There can be no compromise
As a body of believers in Christ
In a church where there are no lambs
The shepherd and the sheep lose sight
Of who will carry on God’s plans
The lambs are as important
As the shepherd and the sheep
Secure the herds existence
With lambs made strong not weak
We all are ewes when it comes to the lambs
Nurturing them in God’s word and His will
That they all become sheep of His pasture
Gather more lambs for the flock to be filled
So when you look around the pews
And young lambs can not be seen
We as sheep must change our view
And bring in lambs to be weened
