Hoping for Home

Let me tell you about this place,
That nothing can compare to.
My home--my home sweet home.
Come, let me show you.
For this is a happy place,
As I hope you'll get to see.
A place where you feel whole,
A place for you to be.
And in this home you're blessed
In so many different ways.
My home is where the heart is,
The place it likes to stay.

And as I lie here
In pain and deep distress,
I dream about my home
With its image on my chest.
My home is far away from here
From this deep and troubled land,
And as I cry in agony
I pray to understand.
How I traveled so far away
How I came on this road?
For when I found myself lost,
I discovered lands unknown.
And I traveled deeper within
Praying hard to get out
Looking for my home
Not quite knowing how.

My home--my home sweet home,
The place I want to be.
Let me out of this dark place,
Please, someone help me.
My home--I want to go home.
I want peace within my heart.
The darkness here frightens me,
And is tearing me apart.
My home--my sanctuary.
You are so far away.
I'll continue dreaming for you,
Continue to hold on and pray.
