Temporary Home

Temporary Home Lyrics
Little boy, 6 years old
A little too used to bein' alone.
Another new mom and dad,another school,
Another house that'll never be home.
When people ask him how he likes this place...
He looks up and says, with a smile upon his face,

"This is my temporary home
It's not where I belong.
Windows and rooms that I'm passin' through.
This is just a stop, on the way to where I'm going.
I'm not afraid because I know this is my
Temporary Home."

Young mom on her own.
She needs a little help, got nowhere to go.
She's lookin' for a job, lookin' for a way out,
Because a half-way house will never be a home.
At night she whispers to her baby girl,
"Someday we'll find our place here in this world."

"This is our temporary home.
It's not where we belong.
Windows and rooms that we're passin' through.
This is just a stop, on the way to where we're going.
I'm not afraid because I know this is our
Temporary Home."

Old man, hospital bed,
The room is filled with people he loves.
And he whispers don't cry for me,
I'll see you all someday.
He looks up and says, "I can see God's face."

"This is my temporary Home
It's not where I belong.
Windows and rooms that I'm passin' through.
This was just a stop,on the way to where I'm going.
I'm not afraid because I know... this was
My temporary home."

This is our temporary home.

I came across this song today and it brought tears to my eyes as I think of all we face in our day to day lives here and how hard it can all seem. It's so nice to know this is just temporary and there is so much more to look forward to. I am glad that I know I will see my loved ones when this temporary home is gone! I am missing you today Pastor Bode! I will see you soon!

  1. This is our temporary home, and when you think of it that way, our problems seem easier to bear and our sorrow is lessened knowing we will see our loved ones in Heaven.

    There hasn't been a day that I haven't sat and wondered what Pastor is doing since He left. I know He is sooo happy and that makes me happy and I know, that someday, I too will experience what He is experiencing.

    Thank God in Heaven, that this is just our temporary home!!!

    I love you, Chelsie!
