Jesus Is Seeking

Jesus is seek­ing the lost ones

Out in the mount­ains so cold

Longing to find them and bring them

Into the shel­ter­ing fold.

Tenderly

ten­der­ly call­ing

Hear the good Shep­herd to­day;

Lovingly

lov­ing­ly seek­ing

Those who have wan­dered away.

Jesus is seek­ing the lost ones

Down in the vall­eys of sin;

Pleading with them

and en­treat­ing

Come

My be­lov­èd

come in.

Jesus is seek­ing the lost ones

Out in the high­ways to­day

Longing to gra­cious­ly lead them

Into life’s beau­ti­ful way.

Jesus is seek­ing the lost ones

Straying in dark­ness to­night

Fain would He lov­ing­ly guide thee

Into His dwell­ings of light.
