I've Never Been This Homesick Before

I'VE NEVER BEEN THIS HOMESICK BEFORE

Thanks to Neil Tennent for this request! As every day in this world seems to just get a little worse, it just makes you think a little more and more about Heaven! ❤️

There's a light in the window.
The table's spread in splendor!
Someone's standing by the open door.
I can see a Crystal River.
I must be near forever!
Lord, I've never been this homesick before!

I see the bright Light shine!
It's just about Home time!
I can see my Father standing at the door!
This world has been a wilderness.
I'm ready for deliverance!
Lord, I've never been this homesick before!

I can see the family gather,
Sweet faces all familiar,
And no one's old or feeble anymore!
This old lonesome heart is crying...
I think I'll spread my wings, start flyin'!
Lord, I've never felt this homesick before!

I see the bright Light shine!
It's just about Home time!
I can see my Father standing at the door!
This world has been a wilderness.
I'm ready for deliverance!
Lord, I've never been this homesick before!
