Representative Text

1 The Savior is calling,
Dear sinner, for thee,
He’s calling for thee;
His mercy is boundless,
His pardon is free;
He’s calling for you and for me.

Refrain:
Come home, come home,
Ye weary and sorrow oppressed;
Come home, come home,
Wherever you roam;
O come unto Jesus and rest.

2 The Savior is calling
From mansions above,
He’s calling, Come home;
O come all ye weary,
And rest in His love;
He’s calling so lovingly, Come. [Refrain]

3 Why longer in darkness
Of sin do you roam?
There’s death in delay;
The Savior’s so lovingly
Saying, Come home;
Come home, O dear sinner, today. [Refrain]
