Author: Mrs. M. B. C. Slade Hymnal: Light and Life #80 (1881) First Line: Are you staying, safely staying Refrain First Line: On your ear his loving tones are falling Lyrics: 1 Are you staying, safely staying,
In the tender Shepherd's peaceful fold?
No, I'm straying, sadly straying,
On the lonely mountains, dark and cold.
Refrain:
On your ear his loving tones are falling,
For he seeks you, wheresoe'er you roam.
Hear him calling, sweetly calling,
As he bids his wand'ring sheep come home.
2 Are you hearing, gladly hearing,
How he bids his folded flock rejoice?
No, I'm fearing, sadly fearing,
I have follow'd far the stranger's voice. [Refrain]
3 Are you roaming, longer roaming,
In the cold, dark night of doubt and sin.
No, I'm coming, quickly coming,
Open, Door, make haste to let me in! [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Are you staying, safely staying]
Hear him calling
