Good shepherd, who desires that all your sheep might come home to your fold, turn our hearts ever back to you when we stray, that your joy would be kindled at our returning and we might receive comfort and goodness from your hand, through you who lives forever in unity with the Father and Holy Spirit in glory. Amen.
“And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my lost sheep.’” – Luke 15:6
