Chorus: Savior, I’m coming, Savior, I’m coming; Tho’ into sin afar I have wandered, Savior, I’m coming home today. 2 Come to the Savior, come to the Savior, Lean on His bosom, tell Him your grief; pour out your heart with fullest assurance, He will give comfort, rest and relief. [Chorus] 3 Come to the Savior, come to the Savior, Full of compassion ever is He; All of our frailties ever He knoweth, For the whole world His mercy is free. [Chorus] 4 Come to the Savior, come to the Savior, Bring Him your burden, do not delay; Down at His feet then trustingly leave it, And in your heart a song bear away. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [Come to the Savior, come to the Savior]
