Hello, old friend. How long has it been?
You've walked beside me all these miles
These years that came and went.
And I have held you close,
But you have held me closer
All my life
This beautiful life
But Jesus
I am sure you know how deep it runs in me
The yearning that I have to feel my feet on Heaven's streets
And how I long to roam
Where sorrow can not go
My Lord, come soon.
I long to be with You
...
Oh, won't you take me home
...
Oh, won't you take me home
My dear and faithful friend
When does it all begin?
When will I see Your face
And touch the scars upon Your skin?
Somewhere down the road
Or is it getting closer?
Please, come soon
I long to be with You.
Oh, won't you take me home
Oh, won't you take me home
This is not where I belong
Oh, won't you take me home
...
I wanna be forever
With you forever
Oh, won't you take me home
I wanna be forever
With you forever
Oh, won't you take me home
I wanna be forever
With you forever
Oh, won't you take me home
I wanna be forever
With you forever
Oh, won't you take me home
Oh, won't you take me home
...
Oh, won't you take me home
