Heart's Home
(This was written for the wedding of Laura Hudson Kittrell and Al Kittrell
June 4, 1994)
Words and Music by Beth Hudson Wheeler

Where northern lands lie bitter cold
A wolf sings out to greet the moon
And lovingly its mate replies
To celebrate Heart's Home

The swan in summer soars aloft
Paired with its mate in silent flight
Winging o'er the greening earth
Together to Heart's Home

CHORUS:
Heart's Home, where the spirit rests
Not place nor time defines its bounds
Nor searching will suffice to gain
Heart's home is found in love

And when the wolf in silence rests
A lingering echo still resounds
The answer to its lonely call
The music of Heart's Home

Descending on the whispering breeze
The swans alight, at last content
The place they land, no matter where
Is always in Heart's Home

CHORUS:
Heart's Home is a long lost answer
Heart's Home is the question asked
Heart's Home is the call together
Ever found in love

Heart's Home, where the spirit rests
Not time nor place defines its bounds
Nor searching will suffice to gain
Heart's Home is found in you
