Sheet music

  1. 1Hark! ’tis the Shepherd’s voice I hear,Out in the desert dark and drear,Calling the sheep who’ve gone astrayFar from the Shepherd’s fold away.Bring them in, bring them in,Bring them in from the fields of sin;Bring them in, bring them in,Bring the wand’ring ones to Jesus.
  2. 2Who’ll go and help this Shepherd kind,Help Him the wand’ring ones to find?Who’ll bring the lost ones to the fold,Where they’ll be sheltered from the cold?Bring them in, bring them in,Bring them in from the fields of sin;Bring them in, bring them in,Bring the wand’ring ones to Jesus.
  3. 3Out in the desert hear their cryOut on the mountains wild and high;Hark! ’tis the Master speaks to thee,“Go find My sheep where’er they be.”Bring them in, bring them in,Bring them in from the fields of sin;Bring them in, bring them in,Bring the wand’ring ones to Jesus.
