Notes: No chorus.
(1)
There's a gospel of today
that says believe and you'll be saved and then
you can go to heaven and see the pearly gates
and walk the golden streets - words like these-
fail to treat all the vanity
that is hidden in me.
(2)
But the gospel is to me
the Triune God within humanity
as the Spirit reaching me to be in me
the One reality -love untold-
Gospel Thee never getting old,
story told eternally.
(3)
Left the ninety nine behind
You searched until the lost sheep You did find
laid me on Your shoulders there you bore me in
Your tender loving care -rejoicing -
You found me though a small lost sheep
You gave all to come find me.
(4)
Sweeping in my deepests parts
You lit a lamp and searched my inward heart,
sanctifying deep within You shined in me
exposed of my sins - repenting -
now I see Lord You're sprinkling me,
with the blood You shed for me.
(5)
Eagerly awaiting me
that I the slightest turn to thee would make,
though my life had been a wreck
You run to me and fell upon my neck, -kissing me -
affectionately, killed the calf for me,
"let us eat and be marry".
