Seeker and Savior of the Lost

George Richards • English

Primary Scripture: Ezekiel 34:11-12

Verse 1

Jesus, 'tis thine to seek, 'Tis thine to save by grace, The ruin'd, wand'ring, lost, undone, Of Adam's guilty race.

Verse 2

No height, nor depth of sin, Of wretchedness, nor woe, Precluded, Lord, thy boundless love, To helpless man below.

Verse 3

Deep as our depths of guile, Didst thou, O Christ, descend; And lo, the prodigal is found, Of his Almighty friend.

Verse 4

Come, grateful sinners, coe The Seeker, Saviour, laud; Forever bless his gracious name; And praise the loving God.
