A wolf in shepherd's clothing You lead your sheep astray Tossing aside those posing a threat to your crooked way You strip them of their fleece Making them to lie in the snow As you wrap yourself in wool sheets Laughing, because the sheep don't know You feast on golden cakes While casting your sheep a single scrap You ignore the coyotes and snakes Deserting the wounded and trapped Oh, how your words tickle The ears of those you mislead Thirsty, they lap the trickle When a gush of water is what they need So, what will you say As you receive your judgment due? Will you weep and give thanks Realizing The Savior's blood covers even you?

A Wolf In Shepherd's Clothing
A wolf in shepherd's clothing You lead your sheep astray Tossing aside those posing a threat to your crooked way You strip them of their fleece Making them to lie in the snow As you wrap yourself in wool sheets Laughing, because the sheep don't know You feast on golden cakes While casting your sheep a single scrap You ignore the coyotes and snakes Deserting the wounded and trapped Oh, how your words tickle The ears of those you mislead Thirsty, they lap the trickle When a gush of water is what they need So, what will you say As you receive your judgment due? Will you weep and give thanks Realizing The Savior's blood covers even you?
