I’ve wandered far away from God

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.
 
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.
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.
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.
5
My only hope, my only plea,
  Now I’m coming home;
That Jesus died, and died for me;
  Lord, I’m coming home.
6
I need His cleansing blood, I know,
  Now I’m coming home;
O wash me whiter than the snow;
  Lord, I’m coming home.

I was looking for a message to give to our congregation's Bible studies today and I remember this song. We are far from God and need going back to Him, especially me.


Solomon Richard

Nairobi, Kenya

It is touchy. I've made my mind to go back home to my God like a prodigal son.

Revised version:

1. You've wandered far away from God;

Won't you come on home?

The path of sin too long you've trod;

Won't you come on home?

Chorus 1:

Coming home, coming home,

Nevermore to roam;

Open wide Thine arms of love;

Lord, I'm coming home.

2. 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.

3. I've wasted many precious years;

Now I'm coming home;

I now repent with bitter tears;

Lord, I'm coming home.

Chorus 2:

Coming home, coming home!

Nevermore to roam!

With Him evermore I'll dwell,

In the Father's home.

4. 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.

5. My soul is sick, my heart is sore;

Now I'm coming home;

My strength renew, my hope restore:

Lord, I'm coming home.
