O'er the mountains cold,
Goes to bring his lost one
Back to the fold.
Seeking to save, seeking to save ;
Lost one, 'tis Jesus seeking to save.
Seeking to save, seeking to save ;
Lost one, 'tis Jesus seeking to save.
2 Patiently the owner
Seeks with earnest care,
In the dust and darkness,
Her treasure rare.
3 Lovingly the father
Sends the news around :
He once dead now liveth
Once lost is found.
