2 Corinthians 5:1-2 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. [
2] For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:
When you see me you only see the temporary house I live in.
One day I’ll trade this house for a heavenly house not made with hands.
I’m getting homesick for the glories of that new body and new home.
I’ve Never Been This Homesick Before

There's a light in the window, — The table's set in splendor; — Someone's standing by the open door. — I can see the crystal river, — I must be near forever, — And I've never been this homesick before,
CHORUS:
See the bright light shine, — it's just about home time. — I can see my father standing at the door. — This world's been a wilderness, — and I'm ready for deliverance. — Lord, I've never been this homesick before
I can see my family gathered, — Sweet faces so familiar, — But no one's old or feeble anymore. — This old lonesome heart is crying, — Soon I'll spread my wings for flying. — And I've never been this homesick before.
