Return, O Wanderer, Return,
And Seek An Injured Father’s Face;
Those Warm Desires That In Thee Burn
Were Kindled By Reclaiming Grace.
Return, O Wanderer, Return,
And Seek A Father’s Melting Heart,
Whose Pitying Eyes Thy Grief Discern,
Whose Hand Can Heal Thine Inward Smart.
Return, O Wanderer, Return,
He Heard Thy Deep Repentant Sigh,
He Saw Thy Softened Spirit Mourn
When No Intruding Ear Was Nigh.
Return, O Wanderer, Return,
Thy Savior Bids Thy Spirit Live;
Go To His Bleeding Feet, And Learn
How Freely Jesus Can Forgive.
Return, O Wanderer, Return,
And Wipe Away The Falling Tear;
‘Tis God Who Says, “No Longer Mourn,”
‘Tis Mercy’s Voice Invites Thee Near.
