Grace Thrillers - There Was Ninety And Nine
In the shelter of the fold;
But one was out on the hills away,
Far off from the gates of gold.
Away on the mountains wild and bare;
Away from the tender Shepherd's care.
Away from the tender Shepherd's care.
"Lord, Thou hast here Thy ninety and nine;
Are they not enough for Thee?"
But the Shepherd made answer:
"This of Mine has wandered away from Me.
And although the road be rough and steep,
I go to the desert to find My sheep."
I go to the desert to find My sheep."
But none of the ransomed ever knew
How deep were the waters crossed;
Nor how dark was the night the Lord passed through
And He found His sheep that was lost.
Out in the desert He heard its cry;
'Twas sick and helpless and ready to die.
Sick and helpless and ready to die.
And all through the mountains, thunder-riv'n,
And up from the rocky steep,
There arose a cry to the gate of heav'n,
"Rejoice! I have found My sheep!"
And the angels echoed around the throne,
"Rejoice, for the Lord brings back His own!"
"Rejoice, for the Lord brings back His own!"
Hallelujah..
