I was a wand'ring sheep

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #99 (1870) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) Lyrics: 1 I was a wand'ring sheep, I did not love the fold, I did not love my Shepherd's voice, I would not be controll'd: I was a wayward child, I did not love my home, I did not love my Father's voice, I loved afar to roam. 2 The Shepherd sought His sheep, The Father sought His child, He follow'd me o'er vale and hill, O'er deserts waste and wild; He found me nigh to death, Famish'd, and faint, and lone; He bound me with the bands of love, He saved the wand'ring one. 3 Jesus my Shepherd is, 'Twas He that loved my soul, 'Twas He that wash'd me in His blood, 'Twas He that made me whole; 'Twas He that sought the lost, That found the wand'ring sheep, 'Twas He that brought me to the fold-- 'Tis He that still doth keep. 4 No more a wand'ring sheep, I love to be controll'd, I love my tender Shepherd's voice, I love the peaceful fold: No more a wayward child, I seek no more to roam, I love my Heavenly Father's voice-- I love, I love His home.

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #128 (1899) Hymnal Title: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes Lyrics: 1 I was a wandering sheep, I did not love the fold, I did not love my Shepherd's voice, I would not be controlled: I was a wayward child, I did not love my home, I did not love my Father's voice, I loved afar to roam. 2 The Shepherd sought His sheep, The Father sought His child; He followed me o'er vale and hill, O'er deserts waste and wild: He found me nigh to death, Famished, and faint, and lone; He bound me with the bands of love, He saved the wandering one. 3 Jesus my Shepherd is, 'Twas He that loved my soul, 'Twas He that washed me in His blood, 'Twas He that made me whole; 'Twas He that sought the lost, That found the wandering sheep, 'Twas He that brought me to the fold, 'Tis He that still doth keep. 4 No more a wandering sheep, I love to be controlled, I love my tender Shepherd's voice, I love, I love the fold: No more a wayward child, I seek no more to roam, I love my Heavenly Father's voice-- I love, I love His home.
