We’ve turned us each to His own way;
In sinful thought and word and deed!
And on God’s Lamb our guilt was laid.

Let the wicked forsake his way,
And the unrighteous man his thoughts;
And let him return unto the Lord,
And He will abundantly pardon;
Let him return unto the Lord,
And He will abundantly pardon.

“Ye sons of men, why will ye die?
Why do ye spend your strength for naught,
For bread which satisfieth not? [Refrain]

And take salvation’s waters free;
Here all your sins and sorrows cure,
IN David’s mercies sweet and sure.” [Refrain]
4 Proclaim this gospel grace to all,
The thoughtless throng in pleasure’s thrall;
The busy world, refined, or rude
And all the sin stained brotherhood. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [We all like sheep have gone astray]
