Return, Return

 

Set up roadmarks for yourself

Make waymarks and guideposts.

Set your heart upon my path

The way is mine says the Lord of Hosts.

 

Return, return.

I will put my law in your inward parts

Return, return.

I will dwell daily within your hearts.

 

Who made your mouth?

I will teach you what to say.

Who made your hands?

Lift them up to me and pray.

 

Return, return.

I equip you when I call you to a task.

Return return

Return to me an humbly ask.

 

I have loved you with an everlasting love

With lovingkindness  your heart I ‘ve drawn

Therefore I have continued day by day

My faithfulness comes like the dawn

 

New every morning, faithful and true

Stand in the old ways and see

Follow the old paths in all that you do

Walk in it- your soul shall agree.
