After a Journey Source: Hymns and Sacred Poems (1740), Part I Author: Charles Wesley (attributed) --- Thou callest me to seek thy face-- ’Tis all I wish to seek, T’ attend the whispers of thy grace, And hear thee inly speak. Let this my every hour employ, Till I thy glory see, Enter into my Master’s joy, And find my heaven in thee. After a Journey. Thou, Lord, hast blest my going out, O bless my coming in, Compass my weakness round about, And keep me safe from sin. Still hide me in thy secret place, Thy tabernacle spread, Shelter me with preserving grace, And guard my naked head. To thee for refuge may I run, From sin’s alluring snare, Ready its first approach to shun, And watching unto prayer.
