COME HOME.

By R. M. Offord

COME, O soul by sin tormented, Come with all thy grief and pain, Come, and with thy sin repented, Know a Father's love again.
Tho thou far from him hast wandered, Grieved his Holy Spirit sore, All thy precious substance squandered, Still abides love's boundless store.
Is his mercy past believing? Doth his grace astonish thee? Do not thus, thyself deceiving, Lose the love so full and free.
Lo, for them that love is yearning Who the darkest paths have trod; Lo, the sin-stained soul's returning Floods with joy the courts of God. —R. M. Offord, in N. Y. Observer.
