I wondered far, from the fold where I was safe.

It wasn't long, 'till I found I'd found I lost my way.

I cried with fear, as the night began to fall.

One more lost lamb, but I heard the Shepherd's call.

He saw my steps as they walked right into the dark.

Though I went astray, I never once left his heart.

That night long ago, how I still recall.

When I lost my way, I heard the Shepherd's call.

He left the fold, to search out that one that strayed.

Left 99 for there was one to be saved.

There on that ledge one step would have ended it all.

But I felt the hand, and I heard the Shepherd's call.

He saw my steps as they walked right into the dark.

I went astray, I never once left his heart.

That night long ago, how I still recall.

When I lost my way, then I heard the Shepherd's Call.

That night long ago, How I still recall, when I lost my way I heard the Shepherd's call.
