Where the Heart Is

Home is always where the heart is No matter how far you roam Its where loves abiding joy is There's no place like home Home is where you learn to share and care And cherish those that are dear Where manners and respect are sown There's no place like home Home is where you laughed and cried As your first bike you learnt to ride Where you fell, the scars are shown There's no place like home Home is where we go When this earth we depart And stand before the heavenly throne Singing praise forevermore There's no place like home
