COME HOME.

Come home, come home, ’tis the Saviour’s voice Calling you out from this world’s alarms, From its sickness and sin to that heavenly choice, To the bosom of heaven, God’s yearning arms— Tenderly pleading through long, long years, Still interceding in sorrow and tears; Turn ye, O turn, from the world and its sin, Heed Him, O heed Him, come in, child, come in!
Come home, come home, from your hunger and wo, From the husks of the herds you’ve been feeding so long, To the River of Life, whose eternal flow Will laden your lips with a heart’s love-song— Home to the heart that was broken for you Far from the mart of the evil we rue, No more to sigh for the sins of the soul, Home, home with Christ, while the long ages roll.
