Come, O thou Traveller unknown

Author: Charles Wesley 1707-1788 Hymnal: Common Praise #407 (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Scripture: Isaiah 2:17 Lyrics: 1 Come, O thou Traveller unknown, whom still I hold, but cannot see; my company before is gone, and I am left alone with thee; with thee all night I mean to stay, and wrestle till the break of day. 2 I need not tell thee who I am, my misery or sin declare; thyself hast called me by my name; look on thy hands, and read it there! But who, I ask thee, who art thou? Tell me thy name, and tell me now. 3 In vain thou strugglest to get free; I never will unloose my hold. Art thou the man that died for me? The secret of thy love unfold: wrestling, I will not let thee go, till I thy name, thy nature know. 4 Yield to me now, for I am weak, but confident in self-despair; speak to my heart, in blessings speak, be conquered by my instant prayer. Speak, or thou never hence shalt move, and tell me if thy name is Love! 5 'Tis Love! 'tis Love! Thou diedst for me! I hear thy whisper in my heart! The morning breaks, the shadows flee; pure universal Love thou art: to me, to all, thy mercies move; thy nature and thy name is Love.

For here my friends and kindred dwell: And since my glorious God Makes thee his blest abode, My soul shall ever love thee well. Topics: General Praise; Joy in God's Worship
