Open Thy Merciful Arms

(Don Whiston)

One of Thy children is coming home
Open Thy merciful arms
One of Thy children's too tired to roam
Open Thy merciful arms.

Send out a shepherd, open the gate
Jesus has called and his sheep must not wait
Oh, what a joy to be travelling home
Open Thy merciful arms.

Though we may travel the valley of death
Jesus will save us from harm
Though we be weary we soon will rest
Open Thy merciful arms.

Do not be fearful lest thou be late
Jesus has called and his sheep must not wait
Oh, what a joy to be travelling home
Open Thy merciful arms...
