Weary of wandering from my God

Author: C. Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 147 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Weary of wandering from my God, And now made willing to return, I hear and bow me to the rod; For Thee, not without hope, I mourn: I have an Advocate above, A Friend before the throne of love. 2 O Jesu, full of pardoning grace, More full of grace than I of sin; Yet once again I seek Thy face: Open Thine arms and take me in; And freely my backslidings heal, And love the faithless sinner still. 3 Thou know'st the way to bring me back, My fallen spirit to restore; Oh, for Thy truth and mercy's sake, Forgive, and bid me sin no more: The ruins of my soul repair, And make my heart a house of prayer. Amen. Topics: Lent; Parochial Missions Used With Tune: WAVERTREE

Lord, shall Thy children come to Thee?

Author: v 3 H. J. Buckoll; S. Hind Appears in 17 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord, shall Thy children come to Thee? A boon of love divine we seek; Brought to Thine arms in infancy, Ere heart could feel or tongue could speak, Thy children pray for grace, that they May come themselves to Thee to-day. 2 Lord, shall we come, and come again, Oft as we see Thy table spread, And tokens of Thy dying pain, The wine poured out, the broken bread? Bless Thou, O Lord, Thy children's prayer, That they may come and find Thee there. 3 Lord, shall we come not thus alone At holy time or solemn rite, But every hour till life be flown, Through weal or woe, in gloom or light, Come to Thy throne of grace, that we In faith, hope, love, confirmed may be? 4 Lord, shall we come, come yet again? Thy children ask one blessing more: To come, not now alone, but then When life, and death, and time are o'er; Then, then to come, O Lord, and be Confirmed in heaven, confirmed by Thee.
