Homesick For Heaven Video (MV)




GRAMMY-nominated and multi-platinum modern worship artist Phil Wickham releases a brand new single, "Homesick For Heaven." This song paints a beautiful picture of longing for our time in Heaven.

"I've written several songs about Heaven over the years, but Homesick for Heaven may be the one that moves me the most," shares Phil Wickham. "It all started with a line that came out while writing:

"I want to see my children run to Your arms."

That image lit something inside of me- a deep ache and a deeper hope. The thought of my kids experiencing the presence, joy, and healing of Jesus- it undid me. And it reminded me: every human heart was made for that. We were created to walk with God, to live in the fullness of His love, forever. Heaven isn't just a distant dream- it's the truest home, where Jesus reigns, sorrow is no more, and death is gone for good. That promise stirs me- not just for the future, but for how I live right now. I pray this song breathes hope into the brokenhearted and puts wind in the sails of those who are longing for more. This one carries eternity in it."

Phil Wickham - Homesick For Heaven Lyrics




My heart belongs to a country and a King
Of a land I've always known but I've never seen
Some call it paradise or the land of the living
Well I call it home and I'm homesick for Heaven
I want to walk with Moses on streets of gold
And dance with David before your throne
To thank You face to face for the grace You've given
I want to see my children run into Your arms
And worship the Savior who wears my scars
There's an ache in my heart
I'm homesick for Heaven
In my Father's house there are many rooms
Enough for evеryone, enough for you
I know it takes somе faith but today you can know without question
Believe in the power of Jesus' name and you're going to Heaven
Hallelujah, in Jesus' name we're going to Heaven
I want to walk with Moses on streets of gold
And dance with David before Your throne
To thank You face to face for the grace You've given
I want to see my children run into Your arms
And worship the Savior who wears my scars
There's an ache in my heart
I'm homesick for Heaven
No more fear, no more pain
Every tear wiped away
Crying Holy, Holy
Every knee on the floor
Every voice evermore
Crying Holy, Holy
Oh I want to go home
Oh I want to go home
To see the ones I love, who've gone before
When death is a memory and tears are no more
To hear the angels praise, can you even imagine
I'll run as fast as I can into Your arms
'Cause I was created to be where You are
There's an ache in my heart
I'm homesick for Heaven
There's an ache in my heart
I'm homesick for Heaven
There's an ache in my heart
I'm homesick for Heaven

There's an ache in my heart
I'm homesick for Heaven
There's an ache in my heart
I'm homesick for Heaven
