I’m so homesick for a world I’ve never been,
 and I hope with everything in my fragile skin that your grace will be sufficient
 while I’m still down here.
 To merely be is a test of survival, 
it’s testing everything in me.
 You are the reason I still breathe.
 This precious mystery, within all of our brokenness.
 So many questions unanswered, but You still sing me to sleep.
 You still call me Your kid.
 There’s just a proverbial home so near to my soul, that I’ve never even known, but so desperately miss.

Homesick
I’m so homesick for a world I’ve never been,
 and I hope with everything in my fragile skin that your grace will be sufficient
 while I’m still down here.
 To merely be is a test of survival, 
it’s testing everything in me.
 You are the reason I still breathe.
 This precious mystery, within all of our brokenness.
 So many questions unanswered, but You still sing me to sleep.
 You still call me Your kid.
 There’s just a proverbial home so near to my soul, that I’ve never even known, but so desperately miss.
