The Dulcimer Hymnal! Lord I'm Coming Home!

Good morning everyone,

                  Hope you've had a great week. We've gotten some heavy rain this week in Illinois; so much that my sister had two tree fall in her yard! This week we are going to look at the hymn "Lord, I'm coming Home."This is another hymn is in the key G and is structured in a verse/refain song form. While searching for the history of this hymn, I found some information at "The Cyber Hymnal""Kirkpatrick wrote this song at a camp meet­ing in Raw­lins­ville, Penn­syl­van­ia, with a ve­ry spe­ci­fic pur­pose: to win the soul of his so­lo­ist, a non­be­liev­er. Af­ter Kirk­pat­rick prayed for the young man, these words came to him. He wrote them down quick­ly, and after the so­loi­st sang them that night, he became a Christ­ian."(http://www.cyberhymnal.org/htm/l/c/lcomingh.htm). Hope you all enjoy the hymn and I'll see you next week.

God bless,

-Ben
