[Verse]
Once there was a sheep so small
Wandered far from pasture tall
In the dark and all alone
Searching for a way back home
[Verse 2]
Shepherd left his ninety-nine
Heart so big and love divine
Through the night he made his way
To bring that little lamb to stay
[Chorus]
Found the sheep in darkest night
Shepherd’s joy so pure and bright
Lifted high and brought back near
Now the flock is full of cheer
[Verse 3]
Lamb so lost and path so wide
Shepherd’s voice a welcome guide
Never once did hope expire
Found in love and warm desire
[Verse 4]
Through the valleys up the hills
Shepherd’s care renews and fills
Every heart that once was lost
Now it’s found at any cost
[Chorus]
Found the sheep in darkest night
Shepherd’s joy so pure and bright
Lifted high and brought back near
Now the flock is full of cheer
