178. Wherever You Wander, Come Home

1 Your Savior has written a message to you,
It follows wherever you roam,
And this is the message so blessed and true,
“Wherever you wander, come home!”

Refrain:
Come home! Come home!
Wherever you wander, come home!
Wherever you are, and wherever you roam,
Your Savior is calling: “Come home!”

2 No matter how dark is the stain of your sin,
His love still entreats you to come;
In Him to find healing, new life to begin,
“Wherever you wander, come home!” [Refrain]

3 He knows you are driven and lost in the night,
Afar on the wild billows’ foam;
For you is still burning, the home-guiding light,
“Wherever you wander, come home!” [Refrain]

4 His mercy and pardon, His peace and His love,
He sends you wherever you roam;
What more can He offer, your welcome to prove,
“Wherever you wander, come home!” [Refrain]
