I've Never Been This Homesick Before

(Music) There's a light in the window The table's spread in splendor Someone's standing by the open door I can see the crystal river Oh, I must be near forever I've never been this homesick before I see the bright light shine It's just about hometime I can see my Father standing at the door This world has been a wilderness And I'm ready for deliverance Oh Lord, I've never been this homesick before (Music) I can see the family gather Sweet faces, all familiar No one's old or feeble anymore And my lonesome heart is cryin' I think I'll spread my wings for flyin' I've never been this homesick before I see the bright light shine It's just about hometime I can see my Father standing at the door This world has been a wilderness And I'm ready for deliverance Oh Lord, I've never been this homesick before I see the bright light shine It's just about hometime I can see my Father standing at the door This world has been a wilderness And I'm ready for deliverance Oh Lord, I've never been this homesick before This world has been a wilderness And I'm ready for deliverance Oh Lord, I've never been this homesick before
