The one who saves the lost sheep.

The one who gives eternal life.

Premium Member The Lost Sheep

Oh, Lord, you left the flock, as others wept in shock- to seek the stray you lost; take home at any cost- that one misguided sheep which from your arms did leap. How deep- your love for all to save just one, from Fall.

Premium Member Shepherd

Seer of flock, He guides
  shields helpless ones from harm
    swiftly finds lone, lost sheep
        staff and rod, protector 
      shelters all, none are left
   stars shine bright, blessed night
safe, sure, beneath the One.

Premium Member A Cry To Heaven

Lord, this is your world!
Help all your lost sheep,
to bend their proud knees.
And wake up to fully adore you.

Let us love and cherish each day.
No matter what comes our way.
We can be joyful in your world!
To pray, work and then, to play.

You are The One
And divisions in Your Name,
You are The Peace
And wars everywhere; 

You are the Creator
And killings in Your Name,
You are The Merciful 
And hate everywhere;  
 
You are The Forgiver  
And sentences in Your Name,
You are The Guiding Light   
And lost sheep everywhere.

Premium Member Lost Sheep

choosing wisely in a world
with no room for wisdom
now tending to your heard
one is lost one got out
one got stolen 
head for the mountain's
cause your sheep is there
one had no blemish got burnt up
stolen one, guy had a strange price to pay
and the one that got out
is wondering were the    you are

After

Funereal sky, bloated river; stifling.
Lost sheep mar near fields, bleating mournfully.
Weighs heavily, this filial duty.
Frankly suffocating. Gather her up.

Dead crow, flat, gross underneath. Spit at it.
Must make ado; toss the ashes and go.
Her porch light was on the night Jesus came.
And now there's no one here to bring me home.

Premium Member heavens knight

heaven’s knight
he walks across the clouds
the first one to greet me

I am astounded
is this Jesus?
I am too shy to ask

He takes my hand
leading me back across the wave of clouds
I feel beloved, appreciated, respected

without words he has alleviated my fears.
I follow the way a lost sheep follows a shepherd
which he is, right?

Premium Member Saving the Lost Sheep

the lost baby was facing sleet in the middle of the blizzard
his poor mother must be frantic!
everyone begged her to stay inside,
but Diana could not rest until the lost sheep was saved
in the middle of the blizzard 
this baby must be cold and miserable
bleating for his mama
she had to fish him out of the ditch
and she got terribly dirty, but it was worth it

Whewwwww

just watched a Michael 
Moore film & am still reeling
the things I don't want

to know but must I?
sweet relief to fall off in 
here and find some "more"

wackos but with a 
much different song to share
like a great escape

it makes me cry to 
read your comments and then to 
experience your 

experience far 
from the maddening 
lost sheep with lost voice

Parable 2: Lost Sheep

The Good Shepherd lost one of his sheep
and searched over the mountain so steep.
   Then when it was found,
   with friends gathered round,
they rejoiced with that sheep he could keep.

For one who went sinfully astray
the Good Shepherd went out of his way,
   with gift of free grace
   overcoming disgrace
the sinner was restored to the Way

Last Hope of Mankind

M-ankind's last hope
H-as been taught by God's wisdom; 
E-very word of the Lord
L-eads one to blissful kingdom.

E-xtend the last hope of mankind, 
C-hosen way must be shown; 
H-ide not the lamp of truth, 
A-s you enlighten the dark zone.
N-ever let lost sheep stay with lies that you've left behind; 
O-n the twenty-fifth of January, spread the last hope of mankind.

Midnight Praise

I love these church tunes,
When I chant it, I feel as high as the moon.
I understand this meaning,
For my soul lacks the cleaning.

I have gone astray like a lost sheep,
I have gone in the deep,
With this beautiful praise,
I'm just in this certain phase.

Praising is like prayer,
Which has lots of layers.
Seek your servant,
It's great to chant it where it's fervant.

Lost Sheep

I can’t smile
When my heart is sorrowful

I can’t help
When my mind is vague

I can’t dream
When my life is vissionless

Oh! my creator
When will my heart be happy?

Oh! my God
When will my mind be hopefully filled?

Oh! my diviner
When will my life be alive?

May be, 
When my lost sheep is returned to me
Safely and alive

Then I smile
And my heart is happy.

My Shepherd

I was but a little lost sheep,
who laid down by the river to sleep.
My Shepherd walked across the water,
to rescue me for keeps.

He picked me up when I faltered,
and washed my sins away.
He made me white as snow,
with the blood He freely gave.

He is more precious than gold,
for He died on the cross for my salvation,
so that I may bow before God
in humble adoration.

Closer To Heaven

Before I'll be going to sleep
without hearing the seagulls shriek,
let me pray and be truly meek:
asking my Lord not to be weak...
trusting the calmness of the deep.
And should I stray like a lost sheep,
I will not fear the waves beneath;
closer to Heaven, where stars peak,
this captain won't abandon his fleet...
should danger foretell a defeat!

God Deeds

GOD DEEDS

Setbacks like a trap
I am shackled for another lap

As I cried under the shadow
A river of tears on my face flow
I become weak and then slow

Nobody showed up in my folk
Then they  laughed at me when I become a dork

And then God sent an angle
Healed me with the voice of appeal
From the mountains from the uphill

Sound of echo a pact of friends
For the lost sheep, like the God deeds

A Deep Longing

When trouble breaks through peace, 
And promises destruction. 
Will i, 
Like a lost sheep, 
Seek the hand that raised me? 
Or will i, 
Like many, 
Tread willingly into evils glare. 
Will i, 
Tear away from, 
The loving arms that made me? 
And him who, 
Breathed life into my very soul? 
But me, 
A soul easily misguided, 
May descend easily into darkness, 
If not for,
This. 
A most steadfast revelation. 
He, 
Forgives me.

Lost Sheep

into a comfortable slaughter
my shephard has left 
a wolf in disguise
to lead astray
his angelic daughters 
with the lord of the flies.

no one can hear the cries of the lost
purposely forgotten
we've been abandoned 
as targeted innocence
into the woods to be killed or bought

lost sheep
lost sheep
we can't see for ourself
or fend while our master is gone
left in a wilderness to be tested
while the survivors wait until dawn.

Thirsty and Hungry

Think about me as I do,
I’m the lost sheep in darkness;
So thirsty and hungry I am,
Think about me in fairness.

Deep within your kind heart,
Intoxicated by wondrous ardour;
So thirsty and hungry I am,
Love me so I won’t go further.
 
Does it hurt to be without me?
Breaking a promise so abruptly?
Giving you my heart in earnest,
Now lost I am and corruptly.

There were those faithful kisses of love,
Flown away dead by the wings of the dove.

Lost Sheep

Red's and orange green yellow and gold.
The colours of the Fall
unfold.
So many spring stories
Untold...


And I am
here
on a concrete steep...
trying to help some
young lost sheep.


"  The complexities of the modern world,
astound me man.  "
it was 10-10-10
just the other day.
I will not look the other way.
I will help that one
that went astray
so Help me God I cannot even
help myself...
Your colors are
austere today.
