1 Rejoice with me, the lost is found!
The wandering one astray
Returns to seek his Father’s face,
With homeward steps today.

Refrain:
Rejoice with me, the lost is found!
Let heav’n reecho the joyful sound;
Rejoice with me, the lost is found!
Let heav’n reecho the joyful sound.

2 Rejoice with me, the lost is found!
The dead’s alive again;
In ev’ry heart let joy abound,
And song and gladness reign. [Refrain]

3 Rejoice with me, the lost is found!
Within His fond embrace
The Father clasps His wand’ring son—
The child of wondrous grace. [Refrain]

4 Rejoice with me, the lost is found!
With robe and signet ring,
With fond embrace and welcome kiss,
With song and banqueting. [Refrain]
