There is many a weary footsore lamb

1 There is many a weary footsore lamb;
That no tender arms enfold;
But for aye at rest on the Shepherd’s breast,
Are our wee white lambs in the fold.

Refrain:
There are storms for those on the mountain side,
There is snow and bitter cold;
But safe and warm and sheltered from harm,
Are our wee white lambs in the fold.

2 There is many a lamb that has gone astray,
There are wanderers young and old.
But how pure and sweet at the Shepherd’s feet,
Lie our wee white lambs in the fold. [Refrain]

3 O hearts that are mourning a wee one gone,
Who long its face to behold;
Thank God for the care that protects them There,
The wee white lambs in the fold. [Refrain]
