Isaiah 53:7 New International Version (NIV)
7 He was oppressed and afflicted,
    yet he did not open his mouth;
he was led like a lamb to the slaughter,
    and as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
    so he did not open his mouth.

John 1:29

29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

On Being A Lamb

Psalm 100:3

It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves;[a]

We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.

John 17:15-18

English Standard Version (ESV)

15 I do not ask that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil one.[a] 16 They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. 17 Sanctify them[b] in the truth; your word is truth. 18 As you sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world.

Colossians 3:10

English Standard Version (ESV)

10 and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator.

John 10:27

New King James Version (NKJV)

27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.

As the youngest daughter, I carefully watched my mother and my older sisters to learn the ways of women; and I'm still watching them.  As they are all godly women, they continue to inspire me, and teach me and lead me.  I was and still am the lamb in that flock and together we are all sheep in our Shepherd's pasture.  I pray that we will faithfully follow His voice as He leads us Home.  

Lamb of God - Eden's Bridge 

I was so lost I should have died

But you have brought me to

your side

To be led by your staff and rod

And to be called a Lamb of God
