RCCG HYMN 574

Far From My Heav'nly Home

"We wept when we remember Zion." - Ps 137:1

CONSECRATION AND HOLINESS 5 VERSES

VERSE 1

Far from my heav'nly home,
Far from my Father's breast,
Fainting I cry, Blest Spirit, come,
And speed me to my rest.

VERSE 2

Upon the willows long
My harp has silent hung:
How should I sing a cheerful song,
Till Thou inspire my tongue?

VERSE 3

My spirit homeward turns,
And fain would thither flee:
My heart, O Zion, droops and yearns,
When I remember thee.

VERSE 4

To Thee, to thee I press,
A dark and toilsome road:
When shall I pass the wilderness,
And reach the saints' abode?

VERSE 5

God of my life be near:
On Thee my hopes I cast;
Oh guide me through the desert here,
And bring me home at last.

As Pants the Hart for Cooling Streams
HYMN 575 >
Have Thine Own Way, Lord!
