Wandering Child, O Come Home

3 verses · With chorus

Verse 1

Have you wandered away from your Father's care, Heavy-hearted and sad do you roam? There's a sweet gentle voice calling now to you - Wand'ring child, wand'ring child, O, come home.

Chorus

Child, come home, child, come home, Wand'ring child, why longer roam? 'Tis thy Father entreats, Wand'ring child, O, come home.

Verse 2

Is your frail bark adrift on life's raging sea, Are you tossed on its billows and foam? There's a safe harbour home, waiting now for you - Wand'ring child, wand'ring child, O, come home.

Verse 3

He is pleading today, heed His gentle voice, As He bids you no longer to roam, To that dear Father's house haste without delay - Wand'ring child, wand'ring child, O, come home.
