1 Light of the wandering, strength of the weak,
Jesus, Thou Lamb of God, Thee would we seek.

Refrain:
Tender and faithful, loving and merciful,
Jesus, we plead with Thee; hear Thou our cry.

2 Come to the desolate, sad and oppressed;
Come to the broken heart sighing for rest. [Refrain]

3 Come in our weariness, help us to pray;
Lord, we would follow Thee; show us the way. [Refrain]
