| 1 Like sheep in the desert we’re straying O’er mountains wild and bare, Away from the fold of the Shepherd, And from His tender care. Refrain: Return, return, return! O hear the Shepherd’s cry; Return, return, return! For why will ye die? 2 In tones that are gentle and pleading, We hear Him kindly say, “Come hither, my sheep that have wandered From me so far away.” [Refrain] 3 Oh, heed the sweet voice of the Shepherd, “Return ye to the fold, Come dwell with my flock safely guarded From danger, storm, and cold.” [Refrain] | Northfield Hymnal: for use in evangelistic and church services, conventions, sunday schools, and all prayer and social meetings of the church and home #145 (1904) |
