I’m Coming to Thee (Bacon)

lyricist: Katharyn Bacon, 1913
Composer: Alfred Reneau

Repentant and wea­ry of sin

I’m long­ing sal­va­tion to win;

Surrendering my all

I an­swer Thy call

I’m com­ing

dear Sav­ior

to Thee.

Believing each pro­mise di­vine

The world and its ways I re­sign;

My guilt I con­fess

oh! par­don and bless

I’m com­ing

dear Sav­ior

to Thee!

No long­er sin’s plea­sures can charm

Or thoughts of Thy ven­geance alarm;

I’ll trust in Thy love

my guilt to re­move

I’m com­ing

dear Sav­ior

to Thee.

From per­ils and sor­row of night

To safe­ty and peace and de­light

Confessing Thy name

each pro­mise I claim

I’m com­ing

dear Sav­ior

to Thee.

No more from Thy guid­ance I’ll stray

But walk in Thy foot­steps each day;

With glad­ness un­told

to en­ter Thy fold

I’m com­ing

dear Sav­ior

to Thee.
