sings with such power at the Moody and sankey
revival meetings:
THE NINETY AND NINE.
"Rejolco with me for have found my yssheep
that was lost"-Luke 1875,
There were ninety and nine that safely lay
In the shelter of the fold
But one was out on the hills away
Far of from the gates Of gold
Away on the mountains wild and bare,
Away from the tender Shepherds care,
Away from the tender shepherds care.
Lord, Thou hast here Thy ninety'a nine,
Are they not enough for Thee?"
But the Shepherd made answer, "'Tis one OF mine
Has wandered away from me-
And although the road be rough and steep,
Igo 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 that the Lord passed
through
Ere He found his sheep that was lost,
Out in the desert He heard It's cry
Sick and helpless, and ready to die.
"Lord, whence are those blood drops all the way
That mark out he mountains track2'
"Thev were shed for one who had gone astray
Ere the shepherd could bring him back"
Lord. whence are Thy hands so rent and torn?"
"They are pierced tonight by many thorn"
But all through the mountains, thunder-riven,
And up frum the rocky steep,
There rose cry to the gate Of heaven,
Rejoice have found my Sheep
And the angels echoed around the throne,
Rejoice, for the Lord brings back His own =
