My Heart Is Set on Home

Sometimes in my dreams, I hear a trumpet sound

I think maybe it means I'm getting closer now

I'm marking off the moments, the days from now till then

The pull is getting stronger for a place I've never been

I'm longing more for heaven, my heart is set on home

What joy to know I'm welcome in that land where I belong

Oh, I would never stay here when it's my time to go

I'm longing more for heaven, my heart is set on home

Every time I lose someone that I love

They slip beyond the blue where heartaches never come

I am more determined to meet them over there

Where there will be no dying, no more trouble, grief or care

I'm longing more for heaven, my heart is set on a home

What joy to know I'm welcome in that land where I belong

I would never stay here when it's my time to go

I'm longing more for heaven, my heart is set on a home

I would never stay here when it's my time to go

I'm longing more for heaven, my heart is set on a home
