Fire-starter Hymn Meditation

Justin Baker • July 1, 2025

Think about these words and consider them if you are away from God. If you are close to the Lord, share this song with someone who needs to come home.

Lord, I'm coming home

William J. Kirkpatrick

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.

Refrain:
Coming home, coming home,
Never more 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. [Refrain]

3. I’m tired of sin and straying, Lord,
Now I’m coming home;
I’ll trust your love, believe your Word,
Lord, I’m coming home. [Refrain]

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. [Refrain]

5. My only hope and only plea;
Now I’m coming home;
That Jesus died, and died for me;
Lord, I’m coming home. [Refrain]

6. I need his cleansing blood, I know;
Now I’m coming home;
Oh, wash me whiter than the snow;
Lord, I’m coming home. [Refrain]
