Where Is Home?
"Home is where the heart is"...
We’ve so often heard it told,
But as we think more carefully,
Some other thoughts unfold.
We give our hearts to many things
As we live our lives each day -
Vain, meaningless, worldly things,
For we tend to wander away
From our God who wants the best for us,
And meets our every need.
When we turn our eyes away from Him,
His word we cease to heed.
Then our hearts are deceitful and have gone astray,
In need of the Master’s touch.
Lord, bring us back to Thee I pray,
For we need you so much.
Our home is with our Saviour,
And it’s there that peace is found;
So, may our "heart be where the Home is"-
And not the other way around.
"The heart is deceitful above all things"
(Jer. 17:9)
