Author: W. Ryland Martin Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12916 First Line: One ev’ning while burdened with care Refrain First Line: Christ who was crucified Lyrics: 1 One ev’ning while burdened with care, Opposing my Savior so fair, A sinner, a human disguisèd, One lonely, forsaken, despised. Refrain: Christ who was crucified, In love’s compassion cried, "Come home, My erring child, I’ll make thee whole"; O’er me the peaceful dove Spread the broad wings of love; Longed I for Heav’n above, Home of the soul. 2 Tho’ weary of earth’s fiercest din, Arrayed in the garments of sin, I held to my sad unbelief, But should have been seeking relief. [Refrain] 3 Now finding my hopes were in vain, That Christ for the sinner was slain, Then I who had wandered astray, Returned to my Savior’s own way.
