Come Home
Author: Eliza M. Sherman Hymnal: Triumphant Songs No.1 #107 (1887) Hymnal Title: Triumphant Songs No.1 First Line: Once I wandered far from Jesus Refrain First Line: Softly comes the still, small whisper Lyrics: 1 Once I wandered far from Jesus,
Far from joy and far from home;
But the loving Savior missed me,
And he gently called me home.
Refrain:
Softly comes the still, small whisper,
“Come, my child, no longer roam;
Come to me, while I am calling,
Child of love, come home, come home.”
2 But I heeded not his calling,
Would not hear the voice so sweet,
So I wandered on unheeding,
Tho’ the thorns did wound my feet. [Refrain]
3 But the way grew dark and dreary,
When his face I could not see,
And I called in bitter anguish,
“O my Savior, come to me.” [Refrain]
4 Then again my darken’d pathway
Brightly glow’d with Jesus’ smile,
For, unknown, my loving Savior
Stood beside me all the while. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Once I wandered far from Jesus]
