Poem

1. AM I

2.  A Psalm of David.
 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
 He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters.
 He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name's sake.
 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your
rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs
over.
 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the
LORD Forever

3. Am I the captain of my ship
Master of my soul
Or is there a greater power
Someone else playing a role

4.  Am I the shepherd of my flock
 Like I have always been told
 Or is there another force guiding the fold
 Through summer heat and winter cold

5.  Am I destined in this life
 To sail the stormy seas of strife
 On the sails of fickle fate
 Never knowing the time nor date
 Calamity may befall
 Even though I gave it my all

6.  Am I like the sheep that has gone astray
 That is lost and can not find his way
 Yearning for the Master's call
 To be put back behind that wall
 To that pasture where I belong
 Where to us he sings his song

7.  Am I hovering on the brink
 We are never in control like we may think
 For though I am the captain, my ship may sink
 And the shepherd of the fold
 Is a worthwhile and lofty goal
 But alas, I am only pretending to be bold

8.  Am I leading others
 When really I am lost
 The cost of pride takes us on a ride
 Don't let the Devil decide

9.  For only God is the captain of the sea
 And shepherd of all that is or ever will be
 I no longer ask "am I" or think about me
 It's all in his hands for eternity
 I am his lamb
 Forever and always, I am.
