The ninety-nine are safely lying
In the fold, in the fold;
Go search the sheep
that’s lost and dying,
In the cold, in the cold.
Far away, far away,
Has wandered far away;
That sheep is lost
upon the mountain,
Far away, far away.
That sheep is lost
upon the mountain,
Far away, far away;
Has wandered from
the crystal fountain,
Far away, far away.
Far away, far away,
Has wandered far away;
That sheep is lost
upon the mountain,
Far away, far away.
That sheep is lost,
oh, who will find it?
Search today, search today;
Oh, sound the voice
of bride and Spirit,
Search today, search today.
Far away, far away,
Has wandered far away;
That sheep is lost
upon the mountain,
Far away, far away.
That wand’ring sheep
the Lord doth cherish,
Gone astray, gone astray;
With cold and hunger
soon ’twill perish,
Far away, far away.
Far away, far away,
Has wandered far away;
That sheep is lost
upon the mountain,
Far away, far away.
