Lyrics

Home is the Place

Home is the place, the place where I belong.
Home is the place where I learn right from wrong.
Home is the place where I can be just me.
Home is the place where Jesus cares for me.

Home is the place where love is flowing out.
Home is the place where sometimes Mommy shouts.
Home is the place where we apologize.
Home is the place where there is no disguise.

Chorus: I love my home.
I wouldn't trade it for anything.
I love my home.
No matter where it is I sing...

Home is the place where I can feel secure.
Home is the place the place I know for sure.
Home is our place for work and rest and play.
Home is our place for living in God's way. (chorus)

Home is a place a place to share with you.
Home is an open door with friendship too.
Home is a place to eat and laugh and sing
Home is a place, a place for everything!

(Last chorus) I love my home!
I wouldn't trade it for anything.
I love my home.
No matter where it is I sing:
I love my home.

love all your stuff.
