This World Is Not My Home


This world is not my home
I'm just passing through
My treasures are laid up
Somewhere beyond the blue.
The angels beckon me
From heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home
In this world anymore.

CHORUS
Oh Lord you know,
I have no friend like you
If heaven's not my home
Then Lord what will I do?
The angels beckon me
From heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home
In this world any more.

They're all expecting me
And that's one thing I know
I fixed it up with Jesus
Many years ago
I know He'll see me through
Tho' I am weak and poor
And I can't feel at home
In this world any more.

CHORUS
Oh Lord you know,
I have no friend like you
If heaven's not my home
Then Lord what will I do?
The angels beckon me
From heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home
In this world any more.

Just over in the glory land,
We'll live eternally;
The saints on every hand
Are shouting victory
The songs of sweetest praise
Drift back from heaven's shore
AndI can't feel at home
In this world any more.

CHORUS
Oh Lord you know,
I have no friend like you
If heaven's not my home
Then Lord what will I do?
The angels beckon me
From heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home
In this world any more.
