Text: | Lord, I'm Coming Home |
Author: | W. J. K. |
Tune: | [I've wandered far away from God] |
Composer: | W. J. Kirkpatrick |
1 I've wandered far away from God,
Now I'm coming home;
The paths of sin too long I've trod,
Lord, I'm coming home.
Chorus:
Coming home, coming home,
Never more to roam;
Open wide thine arms of love,
Lord, I'm coming home.
2 I've wasted many precious years,
Now I'm coming home;
I now repent with bitter tears,
Lord, I'm coming home. [Chorus]
3 I've tired of sin and straying, Lord,
Now I'm coming home;
I'll trust thy love, believe thy word,
Lord, I'm coming home. [Chorus]
4 My soul is sick, my heart is sore,
Now I'm coming home;
My strength renew, my hope restore,
Lord, I'm coming home. [Chorus]
5 My only hope, my only plea,
Now I'm coming home;
That Jesus died, and died for me,
Lord, I'm coming home. [Chorus]
6 I need his cleansing blood I know,
Now I'm coming home;
Oh, wash me whiter than the snow,
Lord, I'm coming home. [Chorus]
