Hymn 205

Weary souls, that wander wide

Meter: 7.7.7.D.

Scripture: Psalm 143:9

1

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 cleansing flood;

Rise into the life of God!

2

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.

3

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 heav’n above,

All the life of glorious love.

4

This the universal bliss,

Bliss for every soul design'd;

God’s original promise this,

God's great gift to all mankind:

Blest in Christ this moment be!

Blest to all eternity!
