The crowd was tired and weary, lost and scattered everywhere
To the Master they were just like sheep, without a shepherd's care
He felt of their infirmity, so much that it made Him weep
His heart was filled with pity and compassion for His sheep

Lord, please move me with compassion for the lost I pray
For the millions who are lost and can not find their way
Melt my callused heart with love no matter what the cost
Lord, please move me with compassion for the lost

This world is so tired and weary, lost and wandering aimlessly
Just like sheep without a shepherd, they're as lost as lost can be
Consume me now with a love for the lost
Let that love become a light that brings lost sheep into the fold
Before there comes the night
