296. 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’m 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 only hope, my only plea,
Now I’m coming home;
That Jesus died, and died for me;
Lord I’m coming home. [Refrain]

5 I need His cleansing blood I know,
Now I’m coming home;
O wash me whiter than the snow;
Lord I’m coming home. [Refrain]
