Like Sheep We Went Astray,
And Broke The Fold Of God;
Each Wandering In A Different Way,
But All The Downward Road.
How Dreadful Was The Hour
When God Our Wanderings Laid,
And Did At Once His Vengeance Pour
Upon The Shepherd’s Head.
How Glorious Was The Grace
When Christ Sustained The Stroke!
His Life And Blood The Shepherd Pays,
A Ransom For The Flock.
But God Hath Raised His Head
Over All The Sons Of Men,
And Made Him See A Numerous Seed
To Recompense His Pain.
