lost sheep
Shepherd on a lonely hill
watch the sheep
there resting still
all the number is 100
silent as the
stars look on
come the morning
when you count them
99 there one is gone
so you search
the field and hillside
up the mountain -valley too
you keep looking
for the lost sheep
for it is important too
when at last finally found her
brings her home
with rejoicing heart
no rebuke or criticism
sheep was valued
from the start
watch the sheep
there resting still
all the number is 100
silent as the
stars look on
come the morning
when you count them
99 there one is gone
so you search
the field and hillside
up the mountain -valley too
you keep looking
for the lost sheep
for it is important too
when at last finally found her
brings her home
with rejoicing heart
no rebuke or criticism
sheep was valued
from the start
