Home Where I Belong

In 1978 our Broken Arrow Youth Group enjoyed singing this song as we anticipated a better life in a place that God has prepared for us. Through the difficult life situations its great to know that God has prepared a Home for us.....

Home Where I Belong
Words and music: Pat Terry © 1976 Word Music (ASCAP)

They say that Heaven's pretty
Living here is too
But if they said that I would have to choose between the two
I'd go home, goin' home
Where I belong

Sometimes when I'm dreamin'
It comes as no surprise
But if you look you'll see the homesick feelin' in my eyes
I'm goin' home, yes I am goin' home
Where I belong

Chorus:
While I'm here I'll serve Him gladly
And sing him all these songs
I'm here, but not for long

When I'm feelin' lonely
And when I'm feelin' blue
It's such a joy to know that I'm only passin' through
I'm headed home, goin' home
Where I belong

One day I'll be sleepin'
When death knocks on my door
And I'll awake to find that I'm not homesick anymore
Cause I'll be home, I'll be home
Where I belong

"Instead, they were longing for a better country--a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them." Hebrews 11:16
