T'was A Sheep ~ Not A Lamb

'Twas a Sheep, - not a Lamb,
  that Strayed away,
  In the Parable - Jesus told:
  A grown-up Sheep that had gone astray
  From the 99 in the Fold.
 
  Out in the Wilderness, out in the Cold,
  'Twas a Sheep the Good Shepherd sought;
  Back to the Flock and into the Fold,
  'Twas a Sheep the Good Shepherd brought.
 
And why, for the Sheep, should we earnestly long
  And so earnestly Hope and Pray ??
  Because there is Danger, if they go Wrong
  They will lead the young Lambs Astray.
 
  For the Lambs follow the Sheep you know,
  Wherever the Sheep may Stray:
  If the Sheep go Wrong, it will not be Long
  Till the Lambs are as Wrong as they.
 
  So with the Sheep - we earnestly Plead
  For the Safety of the Lambs, today
  If the Lambs are Lost,
  What a Terrible Cost
  Some Sheep may have to Pay.
 
  Luke 15 & John 10
