(mmmmm-mmm) They were crowding all around to hear His voice
Every sinner, every outcast made their choice
But the teachers of the law began to frown
Why does this man let the broken crowd around?
If you had a hundred sheep and lost just one
Won't you leave the ninety-nine until it's done?
Go and search the wild valleys and the cold
And carry that one lost lamb back to the fold
And when He finds you shiverin' in the dark
He wraps His arms around your heavy heart
He carries you on His shoulders all the way
Back to the home
where the light of promise stays
He calls His neighbors and His friends to say Let's celebrate,
the lost is found today!
There is joy, oh there's joy in heaven's sight
For the one who stepped out of the night (hallelujah!)
More happiness in heaven above
For the one who returns to His love
Yeah, the lost is found
(the lost is found)
