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

Coming home, coming home
Never more to roam;
Open wide Thine arms of love;
Lord I’m coming home.

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

Coming home, coming home
Never more to roam;
Open wide Thine arms of love;
Lord I’m coming home.

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

Coming home, coming home
Never more to roam;
Open wide Thine arms of love;
Lord I’m coming home.

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

Coming home, coming home
Never more to roam;
Open wide Thine arms of love;
Lord I’m coming home.
