Pastoral Vision (Hundred Sheep)

Visión Pastoral (Cien Ovejas)

There were a hundred sheepEran cien ovejas
What was in his flockQue había en su rebaño
There were a hundred sheepEran cien ovejas
That, lover, he caredQue, amante, él cuidó

But in one afternoonPero, en una tarde
By counting them allAl contarlas todas
He was missing oneLe faltaba una
He was missing one and, sad, he criedLe faltaba una y, triste, lloró

ninety nineLas noventa y nueve
Left in the sheepfoldDejó en el aprisco
And down the mountainY, por la montaña
To look for her, he went, ohA buscarla, fue, oh

He found her moaningLa encontró gimiendo
Shivering from the coldTemblando de frío
He anointed her wounds and carried her on his shoulders.Ungió sus heridas y la cargó en sus hombros
And, to the fold, he returnedY, al redil, volvió

This same storyEsta misma historia
It repeats itself againVuelve a repetirse
There are still sheepHay aun ovejas
How wandering they areQue errabundas van

With a broken soulCon el alma rota
They go over the hillsVan por los collados
Shivering from the coldTemblando de frío
Wandering in the world, without God and without lightVagando en el mundo, sin Dios y sin luz

But stillPero, todavía
There are shepherdsExisten pastores
that through the mountainsQue por las montañas
To look for them, they goA buscarlas, van

And when they find themY cuando las hallan
They bring them to the road, oohLas traen al camino, ooh
to the good pathAl camino bueno
The truth and the life is Christ, the LordLa verdad y la vida es Cristo, el Señor

OohOoh
Jesus is my good shepherdJesús es mi buen pastor

ninety nineLas noventa y nueve
Left in the fold, oohDejó en el aprisco, ooh
and down the mountainY por la montaña
To look for her, he wentA buscarla, fue

He found her moaningLa encontró gimiendo
Shivering from the coldTemblando de frío
He anointed her wounds, he carried her on his shouldersUngió sus heridas, la cargó en sus hombros
And, to the fold, he returnedY, al redil, volvió

OohOoh
Thank my LordGracias, Señor
You gave me all life and lightTú me diste toda la vida y la luz
You took it from me and gave me your loveMe lo cogiste y me diste tu amor
