A Ovelha Perdida

The Lost Sheep

A Ovelha Perdida

The good shepherd sought me already far from the foldO bom pastor buscou-me já longe do redil
And with tenderness found me fallen, sad, vile!E com ternura achou-me caido, triste, vil!
He thought of the wounds with loveAs chagas com amor pensou
And in His arms, He took me homeE ao lar nos braços me levou

[CHORUS][REFRÃO]
Yes, Jesus loved meSim, Jesus amou-me
With love He sought meCom amor buscou-me
He Himself restored me to GodEle mesmo restaurou-me a Deus
By His Blood, He restored me to GodPor seu Sangue restaurou-me a Deus

He followed me far from His place in heavenSeguiu-me bem distante do seu lugar no céu
And said in a loving voice:E disse em voz amante:
I found you, you are mine!Achei-te, tú és meu!
I have never felt such great loveJamais senti tão grande amor
As this from my good shepherdComo este do meu bom pastor

[CHORUS][REFRÃO]

I am dear to Him, what singular grace!Por Ele sou querido, que graça singular!
For He was wounded, in order to save mePois Ele foi ferido, a fim de me salvar
Thus, I am His sheepAssim, ovelha d'Ele sou
And with His flock I will goE com o seu rebanho vou

[CHORUS][REFRÃO]

I continue joyfully nowProssigo alegre, agora
God gives complete power and saving graceDeus dá poder cabal e graça salvadora
He protects me from evilProtege-me do mal
The good shepherd is with meO bom pastor comigo está
He will guide my stepsMeus passos Ele guiará

[CHORUS][REFRÃO]
