MercyMe - Homesick lyrics

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 goodbyes
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
