I Am the Lost Sheep

(I am the lost sheep and You’re the True Shepherd) x2 (You left on the mountain the ninety-nine sheep ) x2

(So eager yet patient You searched left and right) x2 You searched for me with hope You searched for me with hope

(It was Your kind heart with the emptiness You felt) x2 (You called for me “Where are you, O My beloved son”) x2

(Where are you O poor one, I fear you’re in trouble) x2 Where are you, O My child? Where are you, O My child?

(You found me in the thorns, You came to help me out) x2 (You held me with Your hands and saved me from evil) x2

(Your blood for me was shed from the thorns on Your head) x2 And stayed guarding me And stayed guarding me

(Your shoulders carried me, You returned me with great joy) x2 (Your humble and gentle arms surrounded me with love) x2

(You kept me safe within the rest of the sheep) x2 Your heart now has comfort Your heart now has comfort

(I am the lost sheep and You’re the True Shepherd) x2 (You left on the mountain the ninety-nine sheep ) x2

(So eager yet patient You searched left and right) x2 You searched for me with hope You searched for me with hope
