Am I Coming

Am I coming, truly coming

Representative Text

1 Am I coming, truly coming,
Nearer to my Father's home,
As so weary, struggling,
straying,
Thro' the world's dark paths I roam?
Am I leaning, truly leaning, on my Savior as I go?
Am I often sighing, praying,
That of Him I more may know?
Am I coming, truly coming,
Nearer to my Father's home,
As so weary, struggling,
straying,
Thro' the world's dark paths I roam?

2 Am I growing, truly growing,
In that grace He freely gives,
To the child who all forsaking,
In Him breathes and in Him lives?
Thou are mine, O Savior take me, cast my unbelief aside,
Cleanse me from all sin, and make me
Evermore in Thee abide.
Am I growing, truly growing,
In that grace He freely gives,
To the child who all forsaking,
In Him breathes and in Him lives?
