Lyrics by Jeff Leslie
I never saw it coming
I was shaken by surprise
Like someone cast a stone
That caught me right between the eyes
"Jesus, Lord, have mercy!"
I so quickly called His Name.
Like lightning through the darkness
From a thunderstorm, He came.
And suddenly His love has caused
My weary soul to fly
Beside me there are eagles
Beating wings across the sky
I have found I have a Father
I’m no orphan all alone.
For within arms of Jesus
And His everlasting love
I am home. Home.
I am home. Home.
Before me was a shadow
And the fear of what’s to come
But then, the joy of morning came
Like sun upon the dawn.
His love on the horizon
Is so easy now to see
In the sky this side of heaven
It is shining, guiding me
REPEAT CHORUS
Be it ever so wonderful
There’s no place like home.
And suddenly His love has caused
My weary soul to fly
Beside me there are eagles
Beating wings across the sky
I have found I have a Father
I’m no orphan all alone.
For within arms of Jesus
And His everlasting love
I am home. Home.
I am home. Home.
