When Are You Coming Home?
Author: T. O. Chisholm Hymnal: Uplifting Songs #149 (1917) Topics: Invitation and Decision First Line: O soul far away in the wilderness straying Refrain First Line: When, when when are you coming? Lyrics: 1 O soul far away in the wilderness straying,
When are you coming home?
The Spirit is pleading, and lov’d ones are praying,
When are you coming home?
In vain on the husks of the world you are feeding,
In vain you seek rest, your feet weary and bleeding,
Your rest is not there, it is Jesus you’re needing,
When are you coming home?
Refrain:
When, when, when are you coming?
When are you coming home?
A feast He will spread, as a son to receive you,
When are you coming home?
2 How long you’ve neglected God’s gift of salvation!
When are you coming home?
How often you’ve slighted His great invitation;
When are you coming home?
O think of your childhood, of life’s fair beginning,
And think of the years you have wasted with sinning,
And think of the cross with its infinite meaning,
When are you coming home? [Refrain]
3 Your Father in heaven is looking and yearning,
When are you coming home?
His welcome and pardon await your returning,
When are you coming home?
The night fast approacheth, the shadows are falling,
And ere long will follow the darkness appalling,
O listen for God is still tenderly calling,
When are you coming home? [Refrain] Tune Title: [O soul far away in the wilderness straying]
When Are You Coming Home?

Only Two Ways
Author: F. E. B. Hymnal: Christ in Song #11 (1908) Topics: Invitation and Repentance Decision Day First Line: There are two ways for trav'lers, only two ways Lyrics: 1 There are two ways for trav'lers, only two ways:
One's a hill pathway of battle and praise;
The other leads downward; tho flow'ry it seem
Its joy is a phantom, its love is a dream
Its love is a dream, 'tis only a dream.
2 There are two guides for trav'lers, only two guides:
One's the Good Shepherd, e'en thro' the death tides;
The other, the serpent, beguiling with sin
Whose beauty external hides poison within,
Hides poison within, death poison within.
3 There are two homes for trav'lers, only two homes:
One's the fair city where evil ne'er comes;
The other, sin's wages, eternal and dread,
The fate of the lost ones, the doom of the dead.
The doom of the dead, the sorrowful dead.
4 Quickly enter the strait way, leading to life;
Shun the wide gateway of folly and strife.
The Spirit invites you this moment to come;
The Saviour is waiting to welcome you home;
To welcome you home, to welcome you home.
