You have wandered far
on the desert lone,
And you face an awful fate,
For a storm is near
and the night comes on—
Take the home-path ere too late.
Take the home-path,
take the home-path,
Night is coming, do not wait;
Take the home-path,
take the home-path,
Take the home-path ere too late.
You have been allured
from the peaceful way
By your soul’s relentless foe;
Let the Savior true
take your hand today,
For He knows the way to go.
Take the home-path,
take the home-path,
Night is coming, do not wait;
Take the home-path,
take the home-path,
Take the home-path ere too late.
While the chance is yours
turn your back to sin,
Seeking pardon, humbly bow;
You’ve a soul to save
and a crown to win,
And the time to start is now.
Take the home-path,
take the home-path,
Night is coming, do not wait;
Take the home-path,
take the home-path,
Take the home-path ere too late.
