I
THERE'S A LIGHT IN THE WINDOW, AND THE TABLES SPREAD
WITH SPLENDOR, SOMEONE IS STANDING BY THE OPEN DOOR.
OH I SEE THE CRYSTAL RIVER, I MUST BE NEAR FOREVER,
AND I'VE NEVER BEEN THIS HOMESICK BEFORE.
II
I CAN SEE THE FAMILY GATHERING, SWEET FACES THERE ALL
FAMILIAR, BUT NO ONE IS OLD OR FEEBLE ANYMORE. OH THIS
LONESOME HEART IS CRYING, I COULD SPREAD MY WINGS FOR
FLYING LORD I'VE NEVER BEEN THIS HOMESICK BEFORE.
CHORUS
SEE THE BRIGHT LIGHT SHINE, IT'S JUST ABOUT HOME TIME
I CAN SEE MY SAVIOUR STANDING AT THE DOOR, THIS OLD WORLD'S
BEEN A WILDERNESS, AND I'M READY FOR DELIVERANCE, LORD
I'VE NEVER BEEN THIS HOMESICK BEFORE.
