Lord, Bring Some Wanderers Home

Representative Text

1 Lord, bring some wand’rers home tonight,
Some who have gone astray;
O give them grace to come tonight,
Let them no more delay!

Refrain:
Tonight, Lord! Tonight, Lord!
Bring wanderers home tonight!
Tonight, Lord! Tonight, Lord!
Bring wanderers home tonight!

2 May none Thy mercy spurn tonight,
Thy Holy Spirit grieve;
May prodigals return tonight,
May sinners now believe. [Refrain]

3 Let none unblest depart tonight,
Unsaved and unforgiv’n;
Open some yielding heart tonight,
Let there be joy in heav’n! [Refrain]
