Story Behind The Song
I was deployed with the Red Cross to Texas to work in the shelter for the Hurricaine Rita evacuees. As I was passing out the few pillows that had been donated, to the families sleeping on the hard gym floor, I realized that they may have no place to call

Lyrics
NO PLACE LIKE HOME
Nothing is so sure in life as constant change
It seems to be coming faster everyday
No one seems to stay in one place very long
Sometimes it's by choice, sometimes it's not
Cirmcumstances dictate when and where we go
Leaving us to wonder where we can call home
Chorus
I found a place to run home to
My Father's waiting there
His walls are safe and sturdy
His roof shelters me with mercy
There's no place like home
Where He calss me His own
There's no place like home
There's no place like home
Is it just four walls and a roof over head
Or is home a place where our hearts can connect
When my walls come crumbling down all around
He's there to cover me from all my doubt
He's the one foundation I can count on
Through the stormy weather I can be strong
Chorus
Bridge
I know I'm safe because it's home
I know I'm safe because I'm home
Chorus
