VERSE 1: Em - C - Em - C
And I will praise you on this side of the sea
They’ve come to take my home from me
The invisible God they’ve chosen not to see
And will then be swallowed in their unbelief
Their hearts, their hearts have known no peace
So now their eyes will find no sleep
In home heavenly, in my home heavenly
How a father has hated his daughter and sons
And tried to cause his wife to run
But the mighty arms they’re, they’re underneath
And my mother has run into those arms of peace
“A father to fatherless”, He’s been whispering to me
“Now pass through the river, it won’t sweep over thee”
CHORUS:
G
So we go, we go, we’re going home
C
And God, he waits upon His throne
G D/F# G
For you and me, in my home heavenly
G
And we know, we know, and we’ve been shown
C
God’s Son, He shapes and makes our home
G D/F# G
While breaking me, for my home heavenly
VERSE 2: Em - C - Em - C
I claim this world is not our home
We’re on our way to fully-grown
And on that day, a husband will see
What his wife had always known
What his children had sung
And were born to show
That Christ’s love has come and their sins atoned
That dead man live, and their sins atoned
Hey Dad, the Carpenter’s hands have built my home
