The Great Father above is a Shepherd Chief.
I am His and with Him I want not.
He throws out to me a rope
the name of the rope is Love
He draws me to where the grass is green and the water not dangerous
I eat and am satisfied.
Sometimes my heart is very weak and falls down
He lifts me up again and draws me into a good road.
His name is Wonderful.
Sometime, and it may be very soon, it may be very long, long in time
He will draw me into a valley.
It is dark there, but I'll be afraid not, for it is in between those mountains that the Shepard Christ will meet me
the hunger that I have in my heart all through this life will be satisfied.
He gives me a staff to lean upon. <>He spreads a table before me with all kinds of food.
He puts His hand upon my head and all the "tired" is gone.
My cup He fills till it runs over.
What I tell is true.
I lie not.
These roads that are "away ahead" will stay with me through life and after.
afterwards I will go to live in the Big Teepee..
I will sit down with the Shepherd Chief forever.
So be it.
