Brian Doerksen's song 'You Are My Home' expresses a deep longing for belonging and rest found only in God. The lyrics describe searching for love and a place to call home, then finding true rest and safety in God's shelter. Drawing on Jesus' invitation to the weary, the song emphasizes that anywhere with God is home. It speaks of being redeemed from sin and finding one's eternal destination in Him. The repeated line 'My heart is restless, till it rests in You' echoes Augustine's prayer, highlighting the theme of ultimate peace in God's presence.

Oh, yeah, yeah
I? ve looked for love in so many places
Trying to find out where I belong
Wandering through this barren land of longing
Looking for the place called home, a place called home
You said?, Come to me all you who are so weary
And you will find true rest for your souls?
Lord, let these words of life speak into my heart
Anywhere I am I can be home
You are my home, You? re my true home
I am safe inside the shelter of Your love
You are my home, You? re my true home
I am free to be a child once again
Oh, I'm free in You
You are my one true destination
The place I eternally belong
You made me from the earth and then You breathed into me life
Redeemed me from my sin and brought me home
You are my home, You? re my true home
I am safe inside the shelter of Your love
You are my home, You? re my true home
I am free to be a child once again
My heart is restless, till it rests in You
My heart is restless, till it rests in You
Until I dwell in You
Until I find my home in You
Until I find my home in You, yeah
I belong to You
You are my home, true home
You are my home, You are my shelter
You are my home, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You are my home, You are my shelter
You are my home
Bring me home
