Bring Me Home to Thy Fold
O good shepherd, seek me out, and bring me home to thy fold again.Deal favorably with me according to thy good pleasure,till I may dwell in thy house all the days of my life,and praise you for ever and ever with them that are there.
- Jerome (c. 342-420)

8 Hear, O my people, while I admonish you;
O Israel, if you would but listen to me!
9 There shall be no strange god among you;
you shall not bow down to a foreign god.
10 I am the Lord your God,
who brought you up out of the land of Egypt.
Open your mouth wide and I will fill it.
11 ‘But my people did not listen to my voice;
Israel would not submit to me.
12 So I gave them over to their stubborn hearts,
to follow their own counsels.
13 O that my people would listen to me,
that Israel would walk in my ways!
Psalm 81 New Revised Standard Version
