Lyrics
My eyes have now been fixed
My heart has now been set on love
I've turned my gaze to this
The one whom which my soul cries out for
There is none I've known
That holds my heart as you do now
I've made for you a home
A place where love can grow and be found
Draw to me, Jesus
I've made my heart a home
My love is Jesus
My love is you alone
It will not, it will never be enough
Just to know about you, Jesus
But never call you my own
For my, my heart was made for love
I can't live without you, Jesus

Meaning & Inspiration
‘Home’ describes devotion to Jesus through the image of a heart prepared as a dwelling place for love. Fixed eyes and a settled heart establish the song’s central movement: attention turns away from distraction and toward Christ alone. The desire is not merely to gather information about Jesus, but to belong to him and live in close relationship with him.
That contrast between knowing about Christ and calling him one’s own gives the lyric its devotional weight. The repeated request for Jesus to draw near recalls Scripture’s language of abiding, where lasting life and fruit come through continuing in Christ. The heart-as-home image also suggests welcome, constancy, and room for love to grow. Rather than presenting faith as distant observation, the song frames worship as personal allegiance and dependence. Its final confession—that life without Jesus is impossible—brings the earlier images together in a prayer for enduring communion with the one who holds the singer’s love.
