There is a longing in every human heart, a quiet ache that no earthly comfort can fully quiet. We were made for more than this side of eternity, and deep down, we know it. Phil Wickham has spent his career putting language to that holy restlessness, and "Homesick for Heaven" may be his most tender expression of it yet.
Co-written with longtime collaborator Jonathan Smith, the song began with a single line: "I want to see my children run to Your arms." From there, it became something much larger: a portrait of every human heart made for the presence of God.

To mark the release of his new album "Song of the Saints," Wickham invited fans into the K-LOVE Center in Franklin, Tennessee, for an album release party. This live performance captures "Homesick for Heaven" in a room of believers who all ache for the same thing, an eternity with our Lord and Creator.
Hit play, and let your heart rest in God's ultimate provision and a home prepared for us by our Savior.
