Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7205 First Line: In the land of strangers Refrain First Line: Welcome, wand'rer, welcome! Lyrics: 1. In the land of strangers,
Whither thou art gone,
Hear a far voice calling,
My son! my son!
Refrain
Welcome, wand’rer, welcome!
Welcome back to home!
Thou hast wandered far away:
Come home! come home!
2. From the land of hunger,
Fainting, famished lone,
Come to love and gladness,
My son! my son! [Refrain]
3. Leave the haunts of riot,
Wasted, woebegone,
Sick at heart and weary
My son! my son! [Refrain]
4. See the door still open!
Thou art still my own;
Eyes of love are on thee,
My son! my son! [Refrain]
5. Far off thou hast wandered,
Wilt thou farther roam?
Come, and all is pardoned,
My son! my son! [Refrain]
6. See the well-spread table,
Unforgotten one!
Here is rest and plenty,
My son! my son! [Refrain]
7. Thou art friendless, homeless,
Hopeless, and undone;
Mine is love unchanging,
My son! my son! [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [In the land of strangers]
Welcome! Wanderer, Welcome!
