Home . . .

The word for today, and yesterday, and really for my life is: home. There is so much more to that word than its original meaning. Home to me is a place of love, no matter your blood relation. There are people who are home to me, both relatives and not, that I am deeply thankful for today. I post this song, an oldy . . I know. But, Tim and I danced our first dance at our wedding to this song, and it has been true for our lives. Here are the words.

Love Will Be Our Home by Sandi Patti

If home is really where the heart is
Then home must be a place that we all share
for even with our difference our hearts are much the same
And where love is we come together there.

Wherever there is laughter ringing
Someone smiling, someone dreaming
We can live together there
Love will be our home.
Where there are children singing
Where a tender heart is beating
We can live together there
Love will be our home

With love our hearts can be a family
And hope can bring this family face to face
And though we may be far apart our hearts can be as one
When love brings us together in one place.

Wherever there is laughter ringing
Someone smiling, someone dreaming
We can live together there
Love will be our home.
Where there are words of kindness spoken
Where a vow is never broken
We can live together there
Love will be our home

Love will, love will be our home
Love will, love will be our home
Love will, love will be our home
Love will, love will be our home

Chorus
