It's been two long years since I started on this road Longing for that place I call my home And in the battlefield, in the sun, and in the sand I will never forget my homeland It's a long road, (This is my home) And you're waiting at the gates for me You're waiting at the gates for me It's a long road, (This is my home) And you're waiting at the gates for me You're waiting at the gates for me Standing on this battleground, I see my Father before Carrying the cross I should have bore So for Him I will run the race marked out before me Because His stripes have set me free It's a long road, (This is my home) And you're waiting at the gates for me You're waiting at the gates for me It's a long road, (This is my home) And you're waiting at the gates for me You're waiting at the gates for me
