Coming Home

Coming home is such sweet blessing
after being far away
knowing that there is a haven
waiting at end of day
____
nestled in a place of comfort
where things become the norm
provides a place where there’s safety
while hiding from the storm
____
a home filled with pleasant memories
of times that had long passed
speak of love found in its people
make memories that will last
____
not all has e’er been so happy
as things will mar the peace
but love shall always conquer war
and conflict will thus cease
____
bringing about a wholesome home
where peace resides within
always guarding the souls inside
from evil breaking in
____
as long as a home has Jesus
where He can rule and reign
abiding e’er with His presence
soothes any kind of pain
____
a shelter is a home perhaps
but God becomes our rest
coming home to Him in assurance
is where love is its best
