When I look back through my life and count the blessings I have known
I think about my loving wife and how we've built our home
And I think about our children, they're the treasure in my life
I know my purpose; I don't question why
Well, my philosophy is simple, for I am a simple man
It's to trust the Lord with all my heart and do the best I can
To show the ones I love so dear they'll never be alone
As long as I am here they'll always have a home
(chorus)
It's not riches, fame or glory that makes a life complete
At the end of every story, we'll find the things we really need
Is a place where we can hang our hat and lay a cornerstone
It's knowing that we'll always have a home
Cause home is where the heart is
Someday we'll stand before the King who rules the universe
The One who judges everything from the blessing to the curse
And the words that we'll all long to hear as we stand before God's throne
Are well done my child, it's time to come on home
(chorus)
Cause, its not riches, fame or glory that makes a life complete
At the end of every story, we'll find the thing we really need
Is just a place where we can hang our hat and lay a cornerstone
It's knowing that we'll always have a home
Oh...it's knowing that well always have a home
'Cause home is where the heart is
