Worship leader and new recording artist Iryne Rock releases her single, “You Are My Shepherd (YAMS)”.
The song is from Rock’s debut album, “JFY (Just for You).”
“Our God is the author of all good things, especially music. We wanted to do something different with this song, to give listeners something unlike anything else that is out there,” Rock said.
Rock, who is a worship leader in her home state of Maryland, received inspiration for the song while studying the book, “Hearing God’s voice” by Pastor John Adejoro-Oluwa.
“I wrote this song on a flight to Naples, Florida, believing that God was calling me out of my comfort zone.” The book spoke about the love God has for us and how like the Good Shepherd, He calls out to us to follow him, even to the unknown.
The song, produced by Arthur Pingrey, incorporates some island vibes and Rock’s Nigerian heritage into the harmonies.
Jonathan Melgar directed the music video for CamiFilms.
“I hope it blesses every believer and calls us to listen to God’s voice everyday, because He is speaking.”

Lyrics
You are my shepherd
I hear you calling
You are my shepherd
My Lord
I hear you calling, calling, calling
The world is deafening
Still I hear you calling
My Lord
You are my shepherd
My shepherd, my shepherd, my shepherd, my shepherd
I wandered far in my mischief
Blood pressure rising
I need rescuing
I hear you call to my relief
All fear subsiding
You are here
You are my shepherd
I hear you calling
You are my shepherd
My Lord
I hear you calling, calling, calling
The world is deafening
Still I hear you calling
My Lord
You are my shepherd
My shepherd, my shepherd, my shepherd, my shepherd
Somehow the devil done snuck in
With plans to finish me
And my destiny
Don’t know the shepherd ain’t sleeping
He’s always watching
His precious sheep
Oh oh oh oh
You are my shepherd
I hear you calling
You are my shepherd
My Lord
(Oh Lord)
I hear you calling, calling, calling
The world is deafening
Still I hear you calling
My Lord
You are my shepherd
My shepherd, my shepherd, my shepherd, my shepherd
The lost are found by the good shepherd
And they find rest on his shoulders
He calls up by name unto his own and his voice they follow
The lost are found by the good shepherd
And they find rest on his shoulders
He calls up by name unto his own with his voice
You are my shepherd
My shepherd, my shepherd, my shepherd, my shepherd
Shepherd, shepherd
You are my shepherd, shepherd, shepherd
You are my shepherd, shepherd, shepherd
You are my shepherd, shepherd, shepherd
You are my shepherd, shepherd, shepherd
