Soul! celestial in thy birth,
Dwelling yet in lowest earth,
Panting, shrinking to be free,
Hear God’s spirit whisper thee.
Thus it saith, in accents mild,—
“Weary wanderer, wayward child,
From thy Father’s earnest love
Still forever wilt thou rove?
“Turn to hope, and peace, and light.
Freed from sin, and earth, and night;
I have called, entreated thee,
In my mercies gentle, free.
“Human soul, in love divine
I have sought to make thee mine;
Still for thee good angels yearn;
Human soul, return, return!”
