Author: H. L. Harrington Hymnal: Carols of Hope #203 (1906) First Line: I have wandered, dearest Jesus Lyrics: 1. I have wandered, dearest Jesus,
Far from thee;
I have steeled my heart against thee,
Calling me;
I have heard thy sweet voice pleading,
I have turned away unheeding,
But now docile to the leading
I shall be.
2. I have sinn'd against thee, Jesus,
Scorn'd thy Word;
I have shunn'd the light thy grace
And love afford;
I have mock'd thee and defied thee,
I have scorg'd and crucified thee,
Lo, I come, repentant; guide me,
Gentle Lord.
3. Nevermore to wander, Jesus,
Far from thee;
On my path a plenteous light thou
Shed'st for me;
Nevermore o'er symbols moping,
Not in man's vain power hoping,
Nor in darkness feebly groping
I am free.
