Author: Nell Ray Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9377 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: Welcome home, O wandering child Refrain First Line: Do you hear the invitation Lyrics: 1 Welcome home, O wandering child,
Leave sin’s mountain dark and wild;
Hear the Father’s voice now bidding you return!
Worldly pleasures are but vain,
In their midst, O why remain?
Enter now the narrow way, its rapture learn!
Refrain:
Do you hear the invitation:
Welcome home, O wandering child!
For your soul there’s free salvation,
Welcome home today, O weary, wandering child.
2 Welcome home—O words of cheer,
Falling on the sinner’s ear;
Fully trust in Him, the only refuge true!
Whosoever will may come
Unto pardon, love, and home,
And be happy thro’ His wondrous grace anew. [Refrain]
3 Welcome home, the Savior stands
With extended, pleading hands;
Will you tarry, and His heart so tender grieve?
There is danger if you wait,
Since the hour is growing late,
Come today, behind you sin and sorrow leave. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Welcome home, O wandering child]
Welcome Home
