Oh, when shall all my wanderings end, and all my steps to thee-ward tend? 4 Is there a thing beneath the sun that strives with thee my heart to share? Ah! tear it thence, and reign alone, the Lord of every motion there; then shall my heart from earth be free, when it hath found repose in thee. Scripture: 1 John 5:21 Used With Tune: ST. PETERSBURG
