Return

Author: James L. Black Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Return, O ye lost ones, for why will ye stray Refrain First Line: Return, return, ye lost ones, return Lyrics: 1 Return, O ye lost ones, for why will ye stray Where cold winds are blowing, and dark is the way, Perhaps but a footfall ‘twixt you and the grave? Return unto Jesus the Mighty to Save. Refrain: Return, return, ye lost ones, return, Haste from the darkness into the light; Let there be joy in the presence of the angels Over your newborn souls tonight. 2 Return, O ye lost ones, self-exiled from home, The voice of the Spirit entreats you to come; He calls, but you heed not; he speaks to your heart; Beware, lest in sorrow from you he depart. [Refrain] 3 Return, O ye lost ones, and wander no more, For soon will the summer and harvest be o’er; The sheaves will be gathered, and what will you do If there is no welcome in glory for you? [Refrain] 4 Return, O ye lost ones; this moment arise, To him who redeemed you now lift up your eyes; The light star is shining all lovely and bright, Return unto Jesus, he’ll save you tonight. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Return, O ye lost ones, for why will ye stray]

But this my only plea, Dear Saviour, thou hast died for all, Have mercy, Lord, on me.
