VERSE 1
I’ve heard that home is where the heart is, Lord
You know my heart belongs to You
I have heard home sweet home is ever so humble
But there’s no place like that home you’re building for me
CHORUS
Build my home, a place I can come to
When I grow tired and weary from this night
Build my home, a place where I seek refuge
When I need shelter, Lord, build my home with You
VERSE 2
Soon my home will almost be completed
As the time is swiftly passing by
Soon I’ll leave all my cares so far behind me
When I get there, I’ll not wait, I’ll just move right in
TAG
When I need shelter, Lord, build my home with You
