Is seeking the lost ones to save;
Oh, flee to the arms of His mercy,
For thee His life freely He gave.
Refrain:
Then come, wanderer, come,
The gate is wide open for thee;
Borne safe from all harm
On the Shepherd’s strong arm,
A rock and a refuge is He.
2 Though far from the fold thou hast wandered
In byways of sorrow and sin,
Fear not, ’tis the Shepherd that’s calling,
He’s longing to welcome thee in. [Refrain]
3 Though darkness and danger assail thee
On deserts so dreary and cold,
The light of His presence will guide thee
Safe into the sheltering fold. [Refrain]
4 There in the green pastures He’ll give thee
A place of sweet comfort and rest;
Beside the still waters He’ll lead thee
Till safe in the home of the blest.
