Black sheep, standing all alone,
Set apart from the others
Do you want to be noticed?
Or blend in with the fold?

The feeling of rejection,
Leaves you limping and bruised
Can the Master still use you?
Or will you be left out in the cold?

Man judges what’s on the outside,
But the Lord looks within
Are your differences a weakness?
Or can you stand up and be bold?

God made you for a reason,
And your voice needs to be heard
Will you stay living in fear?
Or let your story be told?

The Sacrificial Lamb of God,
A Good Shepherd is He
Will you listen to His call?
Or let life just unfold?

Christ’s death on the cross,
Set all His sheep free
Will you accept His gift?
Or live for silver and gold?
