crooked still - the absentee lyrics

Loading...

“someone is absent,” the shepherd said
as over my cl-ssbook he bent his head
“for several sundays absent too
so tell me teacher what did you do?”
“i didn’t call as perhaps i should
i sent some cards but they did no good
i never heard and she never came
so i decided to drop her name”
he answered gravely, “the fault was mine
hundred, no, there were ninety nine
one was lost and dark and cold
i sought that sheep that had left the fold
the path was stony and edged with th-rns
my feet were wounded bruised and torn
i kept on searching not counting the cost
and overjoyed when i found the lost”
thus spoke the shepherd in tender tones
“i looked and lo, i was all alone
but god, a vision, had sent to me
to show his will towards the absentee”
