420. Return Unto the Lord

O Israel, return unto the Lord thy God,
Return unto the Lord thy God,
For thou hast fallen, for thou hast fallen,
for thou hast fallen by iniquity.
Take with you words and turn to the Lord.
Say unto Him, say unto Him,
Take thou away all iniquity, and receive us graciously;
So will we render, So will we render,
so will we render the calves of our lips.
So will we render, So will we render,
so will we render the calves of our lips.
I will heal their backsliding, their backsliding, their backsliding,
I will heal their backsliding;
I will love them, love them freely;
For Mine anger is turned away,
For Mine anger is turned away.
For Mine anger is turned away,
For Mine anger is turned away.
I will be as the dew, I will be as the dew,
I will be as the dew, as the dew unto Israel,
as the dew unto Israel.
Amen, Amen.
