The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal ‎#559

559. Lord, I'm Coming Home

1 I've wandered far away from God –
Now I'm coming home.
The paths of sin too long I've trod –
Lord, I'm coming home.

Refrain:
Coming home, coming home,
Never more to roam;
Open wide Thine arms of love –
Lord, I'm coming home.

2 I've wasted many precious years –
Now I'm coming home.
I now repent with bitter tears –
Lord, I'm coming home. [Refrain]

3 I've tired of sin and straying, Lord –
Now I'm coming home.
I'll trust Thy love, believe Thy word –
Lord, I'm coming home. [Refrain]

4 My soul is sick, my heart is sore –
Now I'm coming home.
My strength renew, my hope restore –
Lord, I'm coming home. [Refrain]
