Jesus Procura a Ovelha - 104
Eis Jesus à procurar, a ovelha que a vagar
Desgarrou-se do aprisco do Senhor
Pelos montes a sofrer, faça Sol ou a chover
Cristo busca Sua ovelha, com amor
Com amor, o Pastor
Eis que chama Sua ovelha, sem cessar
Possa hoje, o pecador
Escutar a voz do amor
De Jesus, que o procura pra salvar
Com Seus pés o bom Pastor, já feridos, que horror
De descer nos tenebrosos pedregais
E cansado de andar, mais, ainda a clamar
Ó ovelhas minhas, onde vós estais?
Com amor, o Pastor
Eis que chama Sua ovelha, sem cessar
Possa hoje, o pecador
Escutar a voz do amor
De Jesus, que o procura pra salvar
Se escuta o gemer, da ovelha, que prazer
Enche logo o coração do bom Pastor!
E correndo sem parar, até a ovelha abraçar
E trazê-la, ao Seu ombro, com amor
Com amor, o Pastor
Eis que chama Sua ovelha, sem cessar
Possa hoje, o pecador
Escutar a voz do amor
De Jesus, que o procura pra salvar
Já em casa, o Pastor, Oh! Jubila com dulçor
Pela ovelha desgarrada que achou
E assim, também Jesus, com os anjos lá na luz
Se alegra pelas almas que salvou!
Com amor, o Pastor
Eis que chama Sua ovelha, sem cessar
Possa hoje, o pecador
Escutar a voz do amor
De Jesus, que o procura pra salvar
Jesus Seeks the Lost Sheep - 104
Here’s Jesus searching for the sheep that strayed
From the Lord's fold, wandering away
Through the hills in pain, whether it’s sunny or rain
Christ seeks His sheep with love every day
With love, the Shepherd
He calls His sheep without end
May today, the sinner
Hear the voice of love
From Jesus, who seeks to save them again
With His feet, the good Shepherd, already wounded, what a sight
Descending through the dark, rocky terrain
And tired from the walk, still calling out loud
Oh my sheep, where are you hiding in pain?
With love, the Shepherd
He calls His sheep without end
May today, the sinner
Hear the voice of love
From Jesus, who seeks to save them again
If you hear the moan of the sheep, what a joy
It fills the good Shepherd's heart with delight!
And running without pause, to embrace the sheep
And carry it on His shoulder, with love in sight
With love, the Shepherd
He calls His sheep without end
May today, the sinner
Hear the voice of love
From Jesus, who seeks to save them again
Back at home, the Shepherd, oh! Rejoices with sweetness
For the lost sheep that He found
And just like that, Jesus, with the angels in the light
Rejoices for the souls that He saved all around!
With love, the Shepherd
He calls His sheep without end
May today, the sinner
Hear the voice of love
From Jesus, who seeks to save them again
