Comin’ Home
Vs 1
He’d been wonderin’ for a long time, if the Lord would take him back
Since his dreams of greener pastures had all faded into black
But a light in a window --- just round the bend
Began to shine to help him find his way back home again
Pre-Chorus 1
Life had built him up to let him down
But when he saw that open door his tremblin’ voice cried out
Chorus
I’m so tired, ashamed ‘n all alone
Not proud of what I’ve done; but I’ve reaped just what I’ve sown
Layin’ down my heavy load; gettin’ off this broken road -- today
Lord --- I’m comin’ home
Vs 2
Heaven knows where he’d wandered; from freedom to regret
But the pain he’d been feelin’ brought him where the Lord and him first met
When that choir started singin’ -- “Just As I Am.”
It took his mind to better times, and the peace he’d once had
Pre-Chorus 2
Stepped out into that aisle and bowed his head
Hadn’t prayed in years; through bitter tears he said:
Repeat Chorus
Bridge
Maybe like him you’ve been thinking, it’s no use, it’s just too late
But look ahead on the road, where your Father waits
Repeat Chorus/Tag
