9974. Out On The Mountain

1 Far out on the mountain of sin I had wandered,
Far out on the mountain so dreary and cold;
When gently I heard a sweet voice to me calling,
"Oh come back, thou lost one, come into the fold."

Refrain:
Come home, come home,
The Savior is watching for thee;
Oh list to the voice that so sweetly is calling,
"My love hath redeemed thee, Oh come unto Me."

2 "So long I have sought thee, and patiently waited,
So long I have sought thee—Oh listen to Me;
My love hath redeemed thee, Oh come back, dear lost one,
My love hath redeemed thee, Oh come unto Me." [Refrain]

3 Come all who are wandering, footsore and weary,
Come trust in His love, ’tis so boundless and free;
Oh hear His sweet voice as ’tis now gently calling,
"Oh come back, My loved one, Oh come unto Me." [Refrain]
