Music & HymnsWeary Souls, That Wander Wide

"The man that wandereth out of the way of understanding shall remain in the congregation of the dead." Proverbs 21:16

Words: Charles Wesley, Hymns for Those That Seek and Those That Have Redemption, 1747.

Music: "Rosefield," Henri Abraham CTsar Malan, 1834

Weary souls, that wander wide
From the central point of bliss,
Turn to Jesus crucified,
Fly to those dear wounds of His:
Sink into the purple flood;
Rise into the life of God.

Find in Christ the way of peace,
Peace unspeakable, unknown;
By His pain He gives you ease,
Life by His expiring groan:
Rise, exalted by His fall,
Find in Christ your all in all.

O believe the record true,
God to you His Son hath given;
Ye may now be happy, too,
Find on earth the life of heaven:
Live the life of heaven above,
All the life of glorious love.
