Representative Text

1 O pity the erring;
How little we know
Their moments of anguish,
Their burden of woe;
O think of them kindly;
God’s creatures are they;
To Him, their Redeemer,
Go lead them today.

Refrain:
Lonely, friendless, forsaken,
Yet the Saviour will hear them;
He is waiting to help them,
He pitties them now.

2 From those who have wandered
Why turn we aside?
There’s hope for the erring,
Since Jesus has died;
Go lift up the fallen;
God’s message obey;
To Him who will save them,
Go lead them today. [Refrain]

3 O rescue the erring
From sin and despair;
They need our protection,
Our kindness and care;
Go plead with them gently;
God’s lost ones are they;
Go bring them to Jesus,
Go lead them today. [Refrain]
