CHORUS 1:

D                A

Lord, it ain't cheap

D                 A

to feed your sheep.

G

Lost in my head

A             D

I begin to wonder

A             D

I begin to ponder

 

VERSE 1:

 

D                     G

Is anyone even listening?

A                         G

Thoughts that are discouraging

Bm                          D

run through my thick head

F#m                   D

and I forget what You said

G7                            D

about looking into my heart.

A

You know what motivates me

A7

to do my humble part.

A                                      D

Man may look at numbers and see

Em7                    G7                 D

success or failure, but You judge my heart.

A                       D

And occasionally, I get to see

D

someone come to know Thee

G

and lost in my head

A             D

I begin to ponder

 

CHORUS 2:

D                 A

Lord, it is so cheap

D                 A

to feed your sheep.

G

Lost in my head

A             D

I begin to wonder

A            D

I begin to ponder

 

VERSE 2:

 

Why do I so often fail to see

what You're doing through me?

hanging on by a thread

thoughts running through my thick head

Attacking my humble heart

Lord, let not these thoughts keep me

From doing my humble part.

Man may look at numbers and see

success or failure, but You judge my heart.

Lord, You know what motivates me.

Lord, come and motivates me

'cause I'm lost in my head

And I begin to wonder

 

CHORUS 3:

 

D                        A

Lord, why is it so cheap

D                 A

to feed your sheep?

G

But simultaneously, Lord

D               A

Why ain't it cheap

D                 A

to feed your sheep?

A             D

I begin to wonder

A            D

I begin to ponder

G

How can it be both?

D                        A

Lord, why is it so cheap

D                 A

to feed your sheep?

D               A

Why ain't it cheap

D                 A

to feed your sheep?

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I really debated on whether or not to upload this one. It's such a personal prayer in the form of the song, almost too personal to share.  I struggle with the questions does this one glorify my Savior and can/will anyone else relate to it as it pertains to this one. But alas I felt compelled to share it none-the-less. I don't know if I'm doing the right thing by uploading this one...........

 

You may watch/hear me sing this one at:  https://youtu.be/FKugQYQ3xx0

 

JUst keep in mind that I was suffering from a sore throat the day I recorded it, so my voice is off in a few places
