“The Wanderer” is a song written by Ernie Maresca and originally recorded by Dion, released on his 1961 album, Runaround Sue. The song, with a 12-bar blues-base verse and an eight-bar bridge, tells the story of a travelling man and his many loves.
The song depicted the fact that so many never find what they’re looking for. Life is made up of an endless search for something that can’t be found. The loves of life dissipate like the morning mist.
However, there is One searching for those of us who have had such experiences.
For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”
In this is love, not that we have loved God but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
Are you wandering about or have you been found? Give it some thought.
