I've Never Been This Homesick Before

There's a light in the window

And the table spread in splendor

Someone's standing by the open door

I can see a crystal river

Oh, I must be near forever

And I've never been this homesick before

Just see the bright light shine

It's just about home time

I can see my father standing at the door

This world's been a wilderness

I'm ready for deliverance

Child, I've never been this homesick before

I can see the family gather

Sweet faces, all familiar

But no one's old or feeble anymore

Oh, this lonesome heart is crying

Think I'll spread my wings for flying

I've never been this homesick before

Just see the bright light shine

It's just about home time

I can see my father standing at the door

This world's been a wilderness

I'm ready for deliverance

I have never been this homesick before

See the bright light shine (see the bright light shine)

It's just about home time (just about home time)

Oh, I can see my father standing at the door (at the door)

This world has been a wilderness

I'm ready for deliverance

I have never been this homesick before

Oh, I've never been this homesick before
