Assembly Songs ‎#30

30. Coming to Thee

1 Too long have I wandered, too long roamed afar,
Unheeding the beams of the bright Morning Star;
But still its fair beauty is shining for me,
So now I am coming, my Savior, to Thee.

Refrain:
Coming to Thee,
Coming to Thee;
Whilst Thou art calling me,
I’m coming my Savior, to Thee.

2 Thy sweet invitation is cheering my soul,
Like music from heaven the soft echoes roll;
Thy cross is my refuge, Thy promise my plea,
For now I am coming, my Savior, to Thee. [Refrain]

3 I need the full cleansing of Calvary’s tide;
The robe, fair and spotless, Thy grace will provide;
Thy riches are boundless, Thy mercy is free,
So now I am coming, my Savior, to Thee. [Refrain]

4 Oh, make me so steadfast, so true and sincere,
I’ll follow Thee wholly, dismissing all fear;
My strength and salvation, my victory be.
For now I am coming, my Savior, to Thee. [Refrain]
