O wand�rer, come to
the Father�s home!
Why wilt thou further roam?
There�s joy and rest
for the weary breast
In the Father�s home.
Then come to the Father�s home;
No longer sadly roam;
There�s joy and rest
for the weary breast
In the Father�s home.
Why linger away
on the mountains cold?
Why friendless and hopeless roam?
There�s bread to spare,
and there�s room for all,
In the Father�s home.
Then come to the Father�s home;
No longer sadly roam;
There�s joy and rest
for the weary breast
In the Father�s home.
Oh come, and taste
of the Father�s love!
Return, no more to roam;
For loved ones wait
at the golden gate
Of the Father�s home.
Then come to the Father�s home;
No longer sadly roam;
There�s joy and rest
for the weary breast
In the Father�s home.
Then come and rest
in your Father�s house,
Beneath its sheltering dome;
There�s joy and peace
that shall never cease
In the Father�s home.
Then come to the Father�s home;
No longer sadly roam;
There�s joy and rest
for the weary breast
In the Father�s home.
