"If to distant lands i scatter"
By scatter i take it as a negative..(sin)
More specifically if she strays from God ( "greener pastures" aka "Gods will), will he promise to call her again ("would you leave to look for me")
She then goes on to say "my solitary vision" .."that i only dwell in thee". In other words she knows the ultimate ultimate thing that she wants and needs is to dwell back with God.
