And seek thy Father's face !
Those new desires which in thee bum
Were kindled by His grace.
Return ! Return !
2 Return, O wanderer, now return !
He hears thy humble sigh ;
He sees thy softened spirit mourn
When no one else is nigh. -----Return !
3 Return, O wanderer, now return !
Thy Saviour bids thee live ;
Go to His bleeding feet, and learn
How freely He'll forgive. ----Return !
4 Return, O wanderer, now return,
And wipe the falling tear !
Thy Father calls-----no longer mourn :
His love invites thee near. -----Return !
