Love for All

Verse 1

Love for all! and can it be? Can I hope it is for me— I, who strayed so long ago; Strayed so far, and fell so low?

Verse 2

I, the disobedient child, Wayward, passionate and wild; I, who left my Father's home, In forbidden ways to roam;

Verse 3

I, who spurned his loving hold; I, who would not be controlled; I, who would not hear his call; I, the wilful prodigal—

Verse 4

To my Father can I go? At his feet myself I'll throw; In his house there yet may be Place—a servant's place—for me.

Verse 5

See! my Father waiting stands; See! he reaches out his hands: God is love; I know, I see, Love for me—yes, even me.
