Pray for the wan­der­er,
And seek an in­jured Fa­ther’s face;
Thy Sav­ior bids thee come;
Follow Me, I’ll guide thee home.
Bright the beams that smile on me;
Savior, strength­en me anew,
Come in your child­hood, come;
Yes, a soul is res­cued from his sin­ful way,
The Fa­ther is wait­ing to wel­come you home;
Why do they roam? Why do they roam?
Jesus my Shep­herd is:
To the Sav­ior lead.
