Hosea

Weston Priory/Gregory Norbet

1. Come back to me with all your heart.

Don’t let fear keep us apart.

Trees do bend, though straight and tall;

so must we to others’ call.

Refrain

Long have I waited for your

coming home to me

and living deeply our new life.

2. The wilderness will lead you

to your heart where I will speak.

Integrity and justice

with tenderness you shall know.

3. You shall sleep secure with peace;

faithfulness will be your joy.
