LyicsHow oft, alas! this wretched heart
Has wandered from the Lord;
How oft my roving thoughts depart,
Forgetful of his word.
Ye sov'reign mercy calls, "Return;"
Dear Lord, and may I come?
My vile ingratitude I mourn-
O, take the wand'rer home.
Thy pard'ning love, so free, so sweet,
Dear Savior, I adore;
O, keep me at thy sacred feet,
And let me rove no more.
