Return, O wanderer, return
And seek thy injured Father’s face,
Quench not the thoughts which in thee burn
But seek to-night reclaiming grace.
Return, O wanderer, return,
Thy Father has a loving heart;
His eyes thy misery discern,
His grace can bid it all depart.
Return, O wanderer, return,
With many a penitential tear;
For blessed are the souls that mourn,
And God invites them to draw near.
Return, O wanderer, return,
He will thee to return and live;
Go then to him, and grateful learn
How much he can through Christ forgive.
