The Lost is Found

As a parent, ever yearning,
    Longing to be reconciled,
Seeks the prodigal’s returning,
    Loving still the wayward child,
So my many sins and errors
    Find a tender, pard’ning God,
    Chast’ning frailty with His rod,
Not in vengeance with His terrors.
    All things else have but their day;
    God’s great love abides for aye.

- LSB 977, st. 4
