I’ve Never Been This Homesick Before Lyrics - Wanda Jackson

I'VE NEVER BEEN THIS HOMESICK BEFORE 

Writer Dottie Rambo 

There's a light in the window 

And the table's set in splendor 

Someone's standing by the open door (open door) 

I can see a crystal river 

Oh I must be near forever 

And I've never been this homesick before 

Chorus: 

See the bright light shine 

It's just about hometime 

I can see my Father standing at the door 

This world has been a wilderness 

I'm headed for deliverance 

Lord, I've never been this homesick before 

I can see the family gather 

Sweet faces, there all familiar 

But no one's old or feeble anymore (never grow old) 

Oh this lonesome heart is cryin' 

Think I'll spread my wings for flyin' 

Lord, I've never felt this homesick before 

Repeat Chorus (x2) 

Lord, I've never been this homesick before
