But he led his own people out like sheep and guided them like a flock through the wilderness.
You led them during the day by a column of smoke and during the night by a column of fire to give them light to see the way they should go.
Realize that the Lord alone is God. He made us, and we are his. We are his people and the sheep in his care.
He brought Israel out with silver and gold, and no one among his tribes stumbled.
Like a shepherd, you led your people. You had Moses and Aaron take them by the hand.
because he is our God and we are the people in his care, the flock that he leads. If only you would listen to him today!
Like a shepherd he takes care of his flock. He gathers the lambs in his arms. He carries them in his arms. He gently helps the sheep and their lambs.
