Text: | When Jesus Found Me |
Author: | P. P. Bilhorn |
Tune: | [I was weary, lost and straying] |
Composer: | Stephen C. Foster |
1 I was weary, lost and straying,
When Jesus sought me;
With the wand’ring sheep was straying,
When the Shepherd dear found me.
Chorus:
He sought and found me,
Hungry, faint and cold;
In His loving arms He brot’ me
Gently to the Shepherd’s fold.
2 I was bruised and faint with weakness,
When Jesus sought me;
Sinful, wretched, vile and helpless,
When the Shepherd dear found me. [Chorus]
3 I’m no longer lost and bleating,
Since Jesus found me;
Safely sheltered in His keeping,
Since the Shepherd dear found m. [Chorus]
4 Sinner, are you weary, wand’ring?
Jesus now seeks you;
Hear, the Shepherd voice is pleading,
Jesus now is calling you. [Chorus]
