Eddy Arnold - Open Thy Merciful Arms lyrics

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...
