I'M HAPPY - SO HAPPY -
SUCH SAFETY IN THE HEART OF THE SHEPHERD -
I'M HAPPY - SO HAPPY -
SECURELY IN THE ARMS OF THE SHEPHERD -

IN THE WILDERNESS - HE CAME AFTER ME
WITH A JEALOUSY TOO STRONG TO LEAVE ME WANDERING -
LEAVING NINETY-NINE IN THEIR COMPLACENCY -
WHEN HE DISCOVERED ME
HE WRAPPED ME ROUND HIS SHOULDERS - REJOICING

I'M HAPPY - SO HAPPY -
SUCH SAFETY IN THE HEART OF THE SHEPHERD -
I'M HAPPY - SO HAPPY -

I WAS CARRIED HOME - I WAS LOVED ALTHOUGH
I WAS FULLY KNOWN -
HE CALLED HIS FRIENDS & NEIGHBOURS
& THIS HAPPY STRAY WAS FOREVER BLESSED
AS HIS HONOURED GUEST -
& HEAVEN SANG 'CAUSE WE WERE TOGETHER :) :) :)

I WAS A SCREW-UP TILL HE TURNED UP -
& I STILL NESS UP - HE STILL CLEANS UP -
IF I'M DOWNCAST WITH MY EYES SHUT
HE WILL LIFT MY WEARY HEAD UP ///again&again///
IF YOU GOT A STAINED AUTOBIOGRAPHY -
LOOK TO THE ONE WHO FOUND OUT ME -
HE'LL RUN PAST THE ONES WHO 'AREN'T IN NEED'
BENT ON CELEBRATING -
EX-OFFENDER - TRANSGENDER - OR REFUGEE -
LOOK TO THE ONE WHO FOUND OUT ME -
HE'LL RUN PAST THE ONES WHO 'AREN'T IN NEED'
BENT ON CELEBRATING YOU -

I WON'T BE FOUND WANTING
///i'm happy w/the joy of the Shepherd///
HE SAYS BREAK OUT THE BUNTING -
///i'm happy w/the joy of the Shepherd///
WE WALK ON A RICH PASTURE -
///i'm happy w/the joy of the Shepherd///
HE FILLS UP MY MOUTH WITH LAUGHTER -
///i'm happy w/the joy of the Shepherd///

YOU SPREAD YOUR TABLE IN FRONT OF ME -
EVEN IN THE PRESENCE OF MY ENEMIES -
YOU ANOINT MY HEAD
& MY CUP OVERFLOWS -
SURELY YOUR GOODNESS & MERCY FOLLOW -
& I'LL MAKE MY HOME-PLACE IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD -

I'LL MAKE MY HOME-PLACE
& I'LL FIND MY REWARD
IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD
