Now He's Our Father (feat. Greg Holden)

He once was a peach picker

And he toiled in the sun

He ripped the orchard on his own

Until the day was done

His hands were hard and calloused

He didn't have a choice

He served so many non-believers

Until he heard a voice

Now he's our shepherd

And we're his flock

Now he's our captain

And our ship is about to dock

Now he's our keeper

To keep us safe from wrath

Now he's our Father

So he'll lead us down the path

He once became a beggar

When the wealthy had no work

He'd sit out in the snowfall

'Till his toes and fingers hurt

Every flake that fell on him

Felt like a demon's kiss

He suffered endless hardships

Until he found a bliss

Now he's our shepherd

And we're his flock

Now he's our captain

And our ship is about to dock

Now he's our keeper

To keep us safe from wrath

Now he's our Father

So he'll lead us down the path

They once locked him in prison

Though his soul was free from sin

They fed him with almost nothing

'Till his face was cold and thin

They slandered him with every crime

That was within their laws

He had to face a thousand lies

'Till he knew his cause

Now he's our shepherd

And we're his flock

Now he's our captain

And our ship is about to dock

Now he's our keeper

To keep us safe from wrath

Now he's our Father

So he'll lead us down the path
