All we have like sheep gone astray
Each of us has turned our own way
But God laid all our wrongs
Our sins upon the sinless One
His only Son
Oh, come, let us return to the Lord
Come now all His mercies remember
How wide His love that waits to welcome us
Oh, come, let us return to the Lord
All who feel the sting of your sin
Come and lift your eyes once again
How great a price was paid
To save the souls of those who stray
Yet still we stray
Oh, come, let us return to the Lord
Come now all His mercies remember
How wide His love that waits to welcome us
Oh, come, let us return to the Lord
God, we need Your merciful hand
Heal us from our pride, heal our land
As we turn from our ways
Oh, turn our hearts to You in praise
In endless praise
Oh, come, let us return to the Lord
Come now all His mercies remember
How wide (How wide) His love (His love) that waits to welcome us
(It waits to welcome us)
Oh, come, let us return to the Lord (Come, let us return)
Oh, come, let us return to the Lord (Let us return to the Lord)
Come now all His mercies remember (All His mercies remember)
How wide (How wide) His love (His love), it waits to welcome us
Oh, come, let us return (Come, let us return)
Oh, come, let us return to the Lord
Oh, come, let us return to the Lord
Ooh
