Have you ever been so far from home
that your heart ached deep inside?
No matter which way you turned or looked you felt like you had died.

The longing to return home took over your thoughts. 
You felt like every fiber of your body was tired in knots. 

There was only one remedy that you could see. 
 Heading home to fill the emptiness in me.

Our souls inside, feel the same longing to return home. 
It confuses us for we know not from where they come. 

Once we find where the longing soul calls home.
We have peace within, never more to roam.

They used to make fun of me
Call me names
And tell me I shouldn’t even be. 

It did not bother me
For I know who my Father is
He told me from above
They were just missing out on Love.

I like a good game
I don’t know why

I enjoy being on the winning team
So I don’t have to cry

The game of life is like that too
If you win you will feel good all through

There is only one way to win 
That is accept JESUS within

When all of life swirls about you
Your calmness within will suffice you

And HE will be there to rejoice in your strife
And you will win the game of life

When you slip the Surly bonds of earth
And lay your head down to sleep

Don’t fear the Good Shepherd knows the way
And your soul HE will Keep

The fullness you’ll feel the Joy you’ll find 
When you feel GOD’S Love Refined

There’s nothing more complete
Then to Bow Down at Our Savior's Feet

What have you been doing today 
Running all around every which way

Are you happy with what you’ve done
Or could have a better course run

There is a way to change your life
That will bring you much less strife

The key is the one that made you
He sent his son to save you

If you take him into your heart
He will give you a fresh start 

Your life will be like new
With Jesus guiding you

Some are secure in their Faith 
They get a glimpse of GOD
They feel his Saving Grace

We don’t have a clue what lies ahead
Wonderful gifts HE has planned for us
Even Our Daily Bread

The Riches in Glory is far too great
For if we get close enough, we will see our fate

It is  only when we approach HIS FACE
HE is revealed through his LOVE and GRACE

It’s all been out there through the Ages
If only when We Believe in HIM and Trust

It’s all been out there for the Healing
If Only Our Faith We Trust

GOD’S Love is out there through the Ages
If in HIS SON We will only Trust and Obey

GOD’S Wisdom and Glory will be with us
If only We Ask and Believe

HE will walk with Us through Eternity 
If only we ask and receive

GOD is So Great and So Good
HE will Never be Understood
