| Would Jesus Christ have come down from His throne above
|
| To come die for just you? |
| (ooh ooh ooh)
|
| Well, if a sheep in His flock is wanderin' off, He’ll find
|
| And get you like good shepherds do
|
| Well, you’ll find in Scripture, He’s real efficient
|
| At catchin' sheep (at catchin' sheep)
|
| And though it’s strange to suggest
|
| We’re like fish in His nets, we’re lives He rescued
|
| He’ll hold a soiree when He finds where you are, eh?
|
| But that don’t mean He’ll just let you there
|
| You could be next door, or on a safari
|
| But on the day you pray He’ll pay your fare
|
| Like Pepé Le Pew — nobody wanted you
|
| (Although we was both stinkers, His love still grows bigger)
|
| Oooh! |
| When God’s son chooses you
|
| Yeah, go on, and tell me you ain’t a bit important
|
| Would Jesus Christ have come down from His throne above
|
| To come die for just you? |
| (ooh ooh ooh)
|
| Well, if a sheep in His flock is wanderin' off, He’ll find
|

|
| And though it’s strange to suggest
|
| We’re like fish in His nets, we’re lives He rescued
|
| Well, I know it’s hard to swallow
|
| But, babe, He’s skilled at findin' sheep
|
| Christ can reach ya, Christ can keep ya
|
| 'Cause Jesus' love is everlasting deep
|
| Like Pepé Le Pew — nobody wanted you
|
| (Although we was both stinkers, His love still grows bigger)
|
| Oooh! |
| So what’s your new excuse?
|
| Oooh! |
| I really hate to ask right now
|
| Would Jesus Christ have come down from His throne above
|
| To come die for just you? |
| (ooh ooh ooh)
|
| Well, if a sheep in His flock is wanderin' off, He’ll find
|

|

|
| Amazing grace that saved me I was blind and such a jerk and so bad
|
| (So bad, so bad, so bad)
|
| When I was still a prodigal, He told me, kid, don’t run from your Dad
|
| (Your Dad, Your Dad, Your Dad)
|
| Like uh -- Why? |
| (uh) Why? |
| (uh) Why evade Him?
|
| (Uh) He loves you! |
| (Uh) He still loves you!
|
| Would Jesus Christ have come down from His throne above
|
| To come die for just you? |

| Luke 15: 4
|
| «Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. |
| Does he not
|
| leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he
|
| finds it?» |
