Christ centered songs written by Dan Simmons...the best Gospel and inspirational A.I. music on the internet!
"firesong" is the songwriting ministry of Dan Simmons Thanks for stopping by. It's my desire to faithfully share that which has been given to me. This website will be a sampling of recordings that I, along with family and friends, have done over past 45 years. There are over 600 original unpublished songs presented in demo form on this site. Special thanks go to my partners in music, my daughter Amber, son Ian and the guys of Single Heart (Gene, Bob, Chris, Marty and Tata) who joined me to sing praises to the Lord down through the years. I also wish to thank those co-writers and artists that have joined with me in developing new music the passed few years to share on this website. I'm now featuring AI (Artificial Intelligence) groups that I've developed to sing some of the songs. I hope it's evident to everyone... that though the melodies and harmonies, styles and singers may change... JESUS has always been and will always be...the Song! ...this music is one simple expression of a very thankful heart. (Dan is a retired firefighter and ordained minister)

Story behind the song
One of my older songs with a Celtic feel
Lyrics
Lost there in the wilderness you'll find him Wandering not knowing where to go He left the safety of the flock behind him This wandering lamb so far from home But the Shepherd of the sheep will not forsake him For the love of that one lamb burns in his soul So the Shepherd left them all to go and seek him Just to find the long lost lamb and bring him home So in the wilderness the Shepherd sought him The lamb that was so lost but not forgot But the snares of the world had trapped and caught him Enslaved by sin the lamb must now be bought But the Shepherd of the sheep would not forsake him For the life of that one lamb He'd pay the cost So the price was paid to save the lamb from slavery When they nailed the gentle Shepherd to a cross (chorus) The Shepherd of the sheep is Jesus He came into the wilderness seeking for His own And I am the lamb the Shepherd left the flock for Now I hear His gentle voice as He leads me safely home Lost there in the wilderness we find you Wandering not knowing where to turn The cares of life and an anxious heart now bind you And you pay the cost of bitter lessons learned But the Shepherd of the sheep will not forsake you He paid the ransom for your fallen soul And if you listen you can hear him calling He's waiting now to gently lead you home (chorus) Oh the Shepherd of the sheep is Jesus He came into the wilderness seeking for His own And you are the lamb the Shepherd left the flock for So when you hear His gentle voice let Him lead you safely home Yes the Shepherd of the sheep is Jesus When you hear His gentle voice let Him lead you safely home Listen to the Shepherd of the sheep
