Story Behind the Song
Missionary is primarily about the unrecognized hero. Much of their work goes unnoticed and is overlooked by the mainstream as they single-mindedly are obedient to the call and pour out their lives on the behalf of many and One without fanfare.
He or she is a pioneer in spirit and labours
in compassion to bring the Transforming Message of the Gospel to hostile regions of the world, very often at the risk of their own lives. Your own life has been influenced by one in some way if you find yourself reading this.
The song is in honor of them. They still exist today and are not a relic of history to be made into a Hollywood Movie. Nope,
they live and labour together with Him with great joy in a world that is not their home. Until they see Him face to face , they are still ~ Not Home Yet.
Lyrics
A weary trav'ler , a mission field
A people who haven't heard
Heart of compassion compelled him to go
Forsaking the land he did know
He layed it down to let it show
A people who danced in the darkness
Would still see a Marvelous Light
A man's heart was broken in love for a nation
How could he ever say 'No!'
When he knew the One who loved them so
Chorus:
'You're not home yet, you're not home yet'
I still recall those words
You're not home yet, and heaven's echo is clear
Remembering your not Home yet
Many years toiling, his tears in a bottle
living his life on his knees
Call to lost civilization
To Jesus for their souls he pleads
To Jesus this one intercedes
True service will be well rewarded
True fruit , it will always abide
God watching nothing goes unnoticed
True riches on the other side
And treasure where your heart abides
Chorus
Returning back home from the mission
A pilgrim still in a strange land
A well known celebrety meets jubilation
While this Missionary stands unknown
But this faithful one is not yet Home
Chorus
