Coming Home

1 I am coming home, dear Saviour,
Long I've wand'red far from Thee;
Now I long for peace and pardon,
Grant me Thy forgiveness free.

Chorus:
I am coming home, dear Saviour,
Take my soul, all sin defiled;
Cleanse its stains in Calv'ry's fountain,
O receive Thy erring child.

2 Long I've been in darkness straying,
Now, O Lord, I turn to Thee;
I am weary of my wand'ring,
Hast Thou welcome still for me? [Chorus]

3 Let Thy loving smile, O Saviour,
Shine across the night of sin;
And its holy rays shall guide me,
Gates of righteousness within. [Chorus]

4 I am coming home, my Saviour,
Wilt Thou take my hand in Thine;
Lead me forth from out the darkness,
By Thy tender love divine? [Chorus]
