EWE

There was one sheep, so fair and bright 
Who always thought that he was right 

He always drifts to go astray 
And does not care if night or day 

And then one day, he went too far 
Then, he was lost in glade afar 

And the stubborn sheep that he was 
Was lost and lost as time did pass

It's a good thing, the shepherd was kind 
He left the other sheep behind 

From where they were, he left the most 
In search for that one sheep that's lost 

Now, that sheep learned to kiss the ground 
For, he was lost, but now he's found

Thank you very much... It's good to have a biblical reference sometimes...
