I Love My Home

Story Behind The Song

I wrote this song many years ago. We had moved into our "dream home" and were dedicating it to the Lord. I wrote this song for my children and me to sing to our guests. At the time, they were still young enough to agree. Now they are married and have families of their own. I am happy to say that the values in this song are the hallmark of their loving, Christian homes as well. Thanks be to God.

Song Description

With a Brahms violin introduction, guitar and sweet children's vocals, this song makes the heart swell with love and even evokes a smile when mommy shouts and the kids apologize. The song encourages families to share the love they have through the open door of friendship to others.

Lyrics

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 my parents care 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 love'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.

always great stuff keep it coming
