O Deus das Cem

I left the sheepfold thinking I could guide myself
But far from care, the soul will stray
Without a fence, without roots to sustain me
Whoever runs from the Shepherd begins to break

I confused care with prison
I traded the pasture for solitude
I thought I was in control
I became a hostage of my own ambition

Good Shepherd, come find me
Call me by name, I don't know how to return
I got lost when I tried to control
May Your grace find me

Father of love, come rescue me
In this forest of traps I don't know how to walk
If there is a love that never fails to seek
It is Yours that finds me where I don't know how to return

I tasted new flavors, mixed faith with emotion
Promises without roots wounded my heart
To sustain pleasures I sold my attention
Fleeting laughter cost me my anointing

I became a slave to work to maintain what I wanted
Living on autopilot, far from being happy
What a dangerous wrong path, what a real deception
I left the care of love to fall into the yoke of evil

I confused care with prison
I traded the pasture for solitude
I thought I was in control
I became a hostage of my own ambition

Good Shepherd, come find me
I confused freedom with straying
Today I know that the enclosure was love
Protection from heaven, not lack of value

Father of love, come find me
My weary soul wants to rest
If there is a home for me to return to
In Your fold I find a place

I feel hunger, I feel thirst, I miss Your bread
I fell into so many traps that I lost my way
Without wool, I am exposed to the cold night of solitude
God of the ninety-nine
Is there still restoration?

There is no place so far that I cannot find you
Even in the depths of the abyss, My eyes are there
I marked you with a promise before you stumbled
I allow pain for teaching, not to abandon you

Through one sheep I teach the ninety-nine
There is no better place than where My love moves

Through one sheep I teach the ninety-nine
There is no better place than where My love moves

I am the God of the hundred sheep, I leave no one behind
In My presence is your home, here you live in peace

I am the God of the hundred sheep, I leave no one behind
In My presence is your home, here you live in peace

Good shepherd, come and find me
Your voice calls me, I begin to return
If grace found me where I fell
I know there is still a future for me

Father of love, come and restore me
The God of the hundred sheep will not leave me
More joy in heaven when a lost one says
I'm coming home
Today I'm coming back to You

I am the Good Shepherd
I know My sheep, and they know Me

Through one sheep I teach the ninety-nine
There is no better place than where My love moves

Through one sheep I teach the ninety-nine
There is no better place than where My love moves
