Coming Home Tonight

lyricist: James Rowe, 1910
Composer: Peter Bilhorn

If you are sad and wea­ry

And bur­dened down with care

And feel that you have wan­dered from the right;

Tho’ all your life seems drea­ry

Your load seems hard to bear

Just tell Him you are com­ing home to­night.

Just tell Him you are com­ing home to­night

Just tell Him you are com­ing home to­night;

If

wea­ry and dis­tressed

You long for peace and rest

Just tell Him you are com­ing home tonight.

The Sav­ior loves you dear­ly

And longs your soul to win

His prec­ious love would make your bur­den light;

Heed now His ten­der plead­ing

And turn away from sin

Just tell Him you are com­ing home to­night.

He of­fers you for­giv­eness

And peace

and joy

and rest

He wants to make your path­way fair and bright;

His lov­ing arms are op­en

To fold you to His breast

Oh

tell Him you are com­ing home to­night.
