1 Return, O wanderer, return,
And seek thy Father’s face;
Those new desires which in thee burn
Were kindled by His grace.
Chorus:
Jesus died for you,
Jesus died for me;
Yes, Jesus died for all mankind,
I’m glad He died for me.
2 Return, O wanderer, return,
He hears thy humble sigh,
He sees thy softened spirit mourn
When no one else is nigh. [Chorus]
3 Return, O wanderer, return,
Thy Saviour bids thee live;
Come to His cross, and grateful, learn
How freely He’ll forgive. [Chorus]
4 Return, O wanderer, return,
And wipe the falling tear;
Thy Father calls,—no longer mourn;
‘Tis love invites thee near. [Chorus]
