Come, O Thou Traveler Unknown

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: VT2020 #191 (2020) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Scripture: Genesis 32:24-30 First Line: Come O thou Traveler unknown Lyrics: 1 Come, O thou Traveler unknown, whom still I hold, but cannot see! My company before is gone, and I am left alone with thee. With thee all night I mean to stay and wrestle till the break of day. 2 Wilt thou not yet to me reveal thy new, unutterable name? Tell me, I still beseech thee, tell, to know it now resolved I am. Wrestling, I will not let thee go till I thy name, thy nature know. 3 My strength is gone, my nature dies, I sink beneath thy weighty hand, faint to revive, and fall to rise. I fall, and yet by faith I stand; I stand and will not let thee go till I thy name, thy nature know. 4 Yield to me now—for I am weak, but confident in self-despair! Speak to my heart, in blessing speak, be conquered by my instant prayer. Speak, or thou never hence shalt move, and tell me if thy name is Love. 5 ‘Tis Love! ‘tis Love that wrestled me! I hear thy whisper in my heart. The morning breaks, the shadows flee, pure, universal Love thou art. To me, to all, thy mercies move— thy nature and thy name is Love.
