Wandering Afar

Author: William J. Henry Hymnal: Timeless Truths #351 Meter: 9.8.9.8.4.4.9.7 First Line: Wand'ring afar from my home above Refrain First Line: Calling today Lyrics: 1 Wand’ring afar from my home above, Far from the Savior’s arms of love; Barren the fields I am feeding in, Walking the downward paths of sin. Refrain: Calling today, Calling today; I will return to His arms of love While He is calling today. 2 Wand’ring afar on a dreary road, Bearing a sinful, heavy load; Weary and seeking for rest, I pray, I will return, O Lord, today. [Refrain] 3 Wand’ring afar, where the storm winds blow, Feeling the pangs of guilt and woe; Life is a burden, the future drear; Can I thus die while help is near? [Refrain] 4 Wand’ring afar on the mountain wild, Still He is calling, “Come, my child; Hasten to Me, I will all forgive; Perishing soul, oh, come and live!” [Refrain] Topics: Décision Scripture: 2 Corinthians 6:2 Tune Title: [Wand'ring afar from my home above]
