There’s no place like home

For the holidays

Especially when we’re scattered

All over the place

So my prayer for us all

This time each year

Is to treasure home

As we all draw near

Near to the Savior

Who drew near to you and me

And near to family and friends

Regardless of proximity

Home is far more

Than a mere dwelling place

It’s where the heart is

a treasured, sacred space

So let’s treasure home

Both near and far

And make our home

Right where we are

By loving God

Who loved us first

And loving others

Even at their worst

This is the Gospel

The greatest gift, the best news

It keeps us home

Keeps us grounded and true

And since it is better

To give than to receive

Let’s give others the gift of home

By living what we believe

And we’ll experience home

Like never before

This Christmas and beyond

Simply by loving even more

There’s no place like home

For the holidays

So make Christ your home

Now and always
