You're in a better place, I've heard a thousand times  And at least a thousand times I've rejoiced for you  But the reason why I'm broken, the reason why I cry  Is how long must I wait to be with you    I close my eyes and I see your face  If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place  Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow  I've never been more homesick than now    Help me Lord cause I don't understand your ways  The reason why I wonder if I'll ever know  But, even if you showed me, the hurt would be the same  Cause I'm still here so far away from home    I close my eyes and I see your face  If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place  Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow  I've never been more homesick than now    In Christ, there are no goodbye  And in Christ, there is no end  So I'll hold onto Jesus with all that I have  To see you again  To see you again    And I close my eyes and I see your face  If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place  Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow  Won't you give me strength to make it through somehow  Won't you give me strength to make it through somehow    I've never been more homesick than now
