[Title: I DREAM OF HOME] [Verse 1] All the leaves are down The road is grey And I am far from home I walk a road the winter owns The sky is iron, the wind is thin I stopped outside a wooden door Where holy words were rising in A preacher spoke of warmer ground Of light beyond this frozen year I almost passed him like a stone Then something made me stop and hear [Chorus] I dream of home I dream of home On a day like this I dream of home I dream of home I dream of home I could close my eyes And pretend to pray But don't pretend I'm not pretending I WANT TO GO HOME [Verse 2] I know it sounds like I am lost I know the north still knows my name But I am tired of grey on grey And calling hunger just a game So I took your hand beside the fire We did not run from winter's teeth We asked the Lord to lead us home And keep our feet beneath us If I grow tired I'll walk beside you If you grow tired Then hold my hand We are not looking for another world Made beautiful by man [Chorus] I dream of home I dream of home On a day like this I dream of home I dream of home I dream of home I could close my eyes And pretend to pray But don't pretend I'm not pretending I WANT TO GO HOME [Bridge] California was a warm word I carried when I was young But the warmth we want has got a Name JESUS Take us home Not because we know the hour Not because we know the day We only know the One we're waiting for And we are looking His way [Final Chorus] I dream of home I dream of home On a day like this I began to pray And I meant it I mean it too WE WANT TO GO HOME I dream of home I dream of home Not somewhere warm Not somewhere new HOME WITH THE LORD [Outro] All the leaves are down The sky is grey And the road is cold But we're not alone We are waiting for our Saviour The Lord Jesus Christ JESUS IS THE LORD
