Group of singers were supposed to be taking a lunch break from sacred harp singing, but could not help it, the joy of song over took them, they picked up a hymnal and spontaneously began to sing Lord I am coming home. Never under estimate the joy of music to draw folks together.
Anyone know what book and number this song is?

This is a common old hymn but not of the Sacred Heart Tradition. It was written by William Kirkpatrick in 1892 to win the heart of his soloist, a non believer. It worked. Commonly found in most old post 1900 hymnals, but I don't know the name of the one the singers found in the racks.
