Come Let us Worship and Bow Down Archives

The Sheep of His Pasture?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for all those who realize they are the sheep of your pasture. In Jesus’ name, amen.

“Come Let Us Worship and Bow Down” from Maranatha! Music includes lyrics by David Doherty.

Come, let us worship and bow down
And kneel before the Lord, our Maker
Come, let us worship and bow down
And kneel before the Lord, our Maker.

He is our God, He is our God
We are the people of His pasture
He is our God, He is our God
We are the sheep of His hand.

Psalm 100:1-5 (ESV) includes a line in verse three about the sheep of his pasture that mirrors the sentiment of the song.

“Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!
Serve the Lord with gladness!
Come into his presence with singing!

Know that the Lord, he is God!
It is he who made us, and we are his;
we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

Enter his gates with thanksgiving,
and his courts with praise!
Give thanks to him; bless his name!

For the Lord is good;
his steadfast love endures forever,
and his faithfulness to all generations.”

I hope you are one of the sheep of God’s pasture. Rejoice if you are. If not, why not draw close to God, and he will draw close to you.

Come Let Us Worship and Bow Dow?

Dear Lord, I pray for the wisdom for those who take a moment to worship and bow down. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Dave Doherty wrote the praise song, “Come Let Us Worship and Bow Dow.” It is based on Psalm 95:6-7 (ESV).

“Oh come, let us worship and bow down;
let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker!
For he is our God,
and we are the people of his pasture,
and the sheep of his hand.
Today, if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts, as at Meribah,
as on the day at Massah in the wilderness,
when your fathers put me to the test
and put me to the proof, though they had seen my work.”

In Psalm 95:8-9 we are reminded of the hardened hearts of God’s people and even though that generation had been witness to God’s mighty works.

Rejoice as a believer, for you are “the people of his pasture.”
