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,  
Nevermore 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 soul is sick, my heart is sore –  
Now I'm coming home.  
My strength renew, my hope restore –  
Lord, I'm coming home. [Refrain]
