Wandering Afar From My Home Above,
Far From The Savior’s Arms Of Love;
Barren The Fields I Am Feeding In,
Walking The Downward Paths Of Sin.
Calling Today,
Calling Today;
I Will Return To His Arms Of Love
While He Is Calling Today.
Wandering Afar On A Dreary Road,
Bearing A Sinful, Heavy Load;
Weary And Seeking For Rest, I Pray,
I Will Return, O Lord, Today.
Wandering Afar, Where The Storm Winds Blow,
Feeling The Pangs Of Guilt And Woe;
Life Is A Burden, The Future Drear;
Can I Thus Die While Help Is Near?
Wandering Afar On The Mountain Wild,
Still He Is Calling, “Come, My Child;
Hasten To Me, I Will All Forgive;
Perishing Soul, Oh, Come And Live!”
