Invitation to return to the LORD, and put away Abominations. Jerem. iv. 1, 2

It is the LORD of Glory calls, O let his Israel hear: "Stop, ye Revolters, in your Course, "And hearken, and come near.

"What tho' in Sin's delusive Paths "Ye from your Youth have stray'd; "What tho' my Messages of Love "Have been with Scorn repay'd;

"At last return, and Grace divine "Your Wand'rings shall forget? "If loyal Zeal and Love dethrone "Each Idol from its Seat.

"Return, and dwell secure on Earth, "As in your LORD's Embrace, "Till in the Land of perfect Joy "Ye find a nobler Place".

Father of Mercies, lo, we come Subdu'd by such a Call: O let the Hand of Grace divine Reduce, and bless us all.

So will we teach the World that Love, Which we are made to see, And Wand'rers shall with us return, And bless themselves in Thee.
