81. I’m Coming to Thee

1 The words of the Master are ringing, ringing,
In ears so long deaf to his call;
Their message of tenderness bringing, bringing,
Salvation to one and all.

Refrain:
Coming, I’m coming to thee!
Coming, I’m coming to thee!
From sin to be free, only thine to be,
With gladness I’m coming to thee.

2 The feet of the Master are showing, showing,
The pathway to dwellings above;
Where we by our faith should be going, going,
Upheld by Christ’s boundless love. [Refrain]

3 The life of the Master is pleading, pleading,
Is pleading with you and with me;
It shows me how much I am needing, needing,
The help that is found in Thee. [Refrain]
