Waiting for Home

[Intro]
Longing for the sky where I belong, a homeland beyond
Waiting in the shadows of my soul, trying to stay strong

[Verse 1]
Fighting tears in the quiet hours, my heart is torn
Seeking comfort in the spirit's power, since I was born
Earth’s façade is beautiful but the people bring pain
Wishing I could leave this hurt behind, escape the rain

[Pre-Chorus]
Every test, every trial, feels like too much to bear
Yet Your love keeps me afloat, Your presence always there
Holy Spirit, my guiding light through endless night
Hold me close, remind me I’m destined for Your light

[Chorus]
I just wanna go home, to where my soul is free
To be with You, my Father, my King, eternally
This earthly life is heavy, burdens that don’t cease
Waiting for that wedding day, for perfect peace

[Verse 2]
Mistakes and failures shadow me, nearly lost my way
But Your grace has brought me through each dark day
My mission here feels endless, a test of faith and trust
Every scar, every lesson is part of what I must

[Pre-Chorus]
Hold on, I cry out to You, my refuge and shield
In Your arms, I find the strength that I need to heal
Father, I miss the joy of being in Your embrace
Longing for that moment when I see Your face

[Chorus]
I just wanna go home, to where my soul is free
To be with You, my Father, my King, eternally
This earthly life is heavy, burdens that don’t cease
Waiting for that wedding day, for perfect peace

[Bridge]
Holy Spirit, sustain me through the storm
Remind me of my purpose, keep me in Your form
Though this earth is fleeting, and pain is real
Your love is the truth that I feel

[Outro]
Father, I await the day I reunite with You
Till then, I walk by faith, brave and true
All my life, for You I dedicate
Until I see You at that heavenly gate
