 Homesick
"Home is where your heart is,"
That's what they always say;
But my heart is divided
Since you went away.
For part of me went with you
To heaven high above
And part is still down here
With others whom I love.
And I am truly homesick
For my family to be whole
And all together once again --
That truly is my goal.
You can't come back to earth,
And so we'll come to you,
But only God knows when
Our heavenly date is due.
So I'll keep on being homesick
Each day my whole life through,
Until I get to heaven
And I can be with you.
