Create PowerPoint slides from this hymn →A 19th-century evangelical hymn calling believers to join the Great Commission by seeking and rescuing the spiritually lost, drawn from the parable of the lost sheep. The refrain 'Bring them in from the fields of sin' became a widely recognized call to evangelistic action in revival settings.
Verse 1
Hark! 'tis the Shepherd's voice I hear,
Out in the desert dark and drear,
Calling the sheep who've gone astray,
Far from the Shepherd's fold away.
Refrain
Bring them in, Bring them in,
Bring them in from the fields of sin;
Bring them in, Bring them in,
Bring the wanderers to Jesus.
Verse 2
Who'll go and help the Shepherd kind,
Help Him the wandering ones to find?
Who'll bring them back into the fold,
Where they'll be sheltered from the cold?
Refrain
Bring them in, Bring them in,
Bring them in from the fields of sin;
Bring them in, Bring them in,
Bring the wanderers to Jesus.
Verse 3
Out in the desert hear their cry,
Out on the mountain wild and high,
Hark! 'tis the Master speaks to thee,
"Go, find My sheep where 'er they be."
Refrain
Bring them in, Bring them in,
Bring them in from the fields of sin;
Bring them in, Bring them in,
Bring the wanderers to Jesus.
