Home Far Away

Key of G · Chords: I IV V

Chorus

   G                  C               G
Oh lord have mercy on this weary soul of mine
                         D7
May I walk in your light everyday
    G                 C
And when I’ve crossed that deep silent river
        G        D7        G
I’ll be happy in that home far away

Verse 1

                         C            G
I wandered away from the straight and the narrow
                             D7
Driftin’ like a ship lost at sea
   G                   C        G
No lighthouse to guide my weary footsteps
          D7       G
Til Jesus answered my plea

Verse 2

                         C      G
The lights are bright no longer I’m blinded
                            D7
From the bondage of sin I’m free
   G            C       G
He lifted me up to join salvation
             D7       G
I’ll live on eternally
