Closer to Home Lyrics by Connie Smith, Sharon White, Barbara Fairchild

Love Never Fails

2003

A box filled with letters
And old photographs
He wonders, how could the seasons
Have change so fast
Though the years have been good
He can't believe how they've flown
Say he's not getting older
He's just getting closer to home
Closer to home
And all that awaits
For him at the end
Of this journey called faith
There's a Savior he loves
And some dear friends he's known
He smiles 'cause hе's thinking
How he's getting closer to homе
She never expected
To be where she is
She always thought he'd get better
But he never did
There's a Bible he left
To comfort her when she's alone
Though it won't bring him back
It makes her feel close to home
So, let the music play
It sounds sweeter every day
Can't you hear the angels singing
You know it's not so far away
Closer to home
And all that awaits
For us at the end
Of this journey called faith
There's a Savior we love
And some dear friends we've known
We can smile just thinking
How we're getting closer to home
We can smile just thinking
How we're getting closer to home
