Homesick

You're in a better place, I've heard a thousand times And at least a thousand times I've rejoiced for you But the reason why I'm broken, the reason why I cry Is how long must I wait to be with you

I close my eyes and I see your face If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow I've never been more homesick than now

Help me Lord cause I don't understand your ways The reason why I wonder if I'll ever know But, even if you showed me, the hurt would be the same Cause I'm still here so far away from home

I close my eyes and I see your face If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow I've never been more homesick than now

In Christ, there are no goodbye And in Christ, there is no end So I'll hold onto Jesus with all that I have To see you again To see you again

And I close my eyes and I see your face If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow Won't you give me strength to make it through somehow Won't you give me strength to make it through somehow

I've never been more homesick than now


WOW! what a song, I have always loved this song. Today as I am sitting here at the computer and pondering over my life and things that occur and happen, this song came on the radio. Just this morning we heard that my Great Aunt Betty passed away last night. She was very old and was very special to my family. She will be greatly missed and was greatly loved. But I do know that she was saved and I will see her one day again in Heaven. Praise God I know that much :) That does bring a smile to my face.

Knowing that one day I will be in Heaven and there will be no pain, THANK GOD!!!, and I will see all the loved ones that have gone on to be with the Lord, give me hope. I cant wait till the day when God will wipe away all my tears and I no longer live in pain from a day to day bases, that is exciting in itself.
