The morning paper is reading like a scroll
Like the headlines from 2000 years ago
Everywhere I look I see the signs
My hearts telling me it's almost timeDon't it make you want to go home
Run through those gates and fall in Jesus' arms
And all the cares of this world will be gone
Don't it make ya Don't it make you wanna go homeI cant wait to sit at Jesus feet
To hear him say welcome home to me
I can almost feel his warm embrace
And His nail scarred hands as they wipe my tears awayDon't it make you want to go home
Run through those gates and fall in Jesus' arms
And all the cares of this world will be gone
Don't it make ya Don't it make you wanna go homeFar away from this world of pain
God's prepared a perfect place
And I cant stop thinking about it
I'm so homesick for it
Don't it make you want dont it make you wanna go homeDon't it make you want to go home
Run through those gates and fall in Jesus' arms
And all the cares of this world will be gone
Don't it make ya Don't it make you wanna go homeDon't it make you want to go home
Run through those gates and straight to heaven's throne
And fall in Jesus' arms
Don't it make ya Don't it make you wanna go homeYea, yes I wanna go home
Yea, yes I wanna go home
Yea, yes I wanna go home
