1  I was wandering and weary,
When my Saviour came to me;
For the ways of since grew dreary,
And the world had ceased to woo me:
And I thought I heard Him say
As He came along his way:

R:  O wandering souls, come near Me;
My sheep should never fear Me:
I am the Shepherd true.

2  At first I would not hearken,
But put off till the morrow,
Till life began to darken,
And I grew sick with sorrow;
Then I thought I heard Him say,
As He came along His way, R:

3  At last I stopped to listen,
His voice could ne’er deceive me;
I saw His kind eye glisten,
So anxious to relieve me;
Then I knew I heard Him say,
As He came along His way, R:

4  I thought His love would weaken
As more and more He knew me,
But it burneth like a beacon,
And its light and heat go thro’ me;
And I ever hear Him say,
As He goes along His way, R:
