This World is Not My Home

Verse 1:
This world is not my home
I'm just a passing through
My treasures and my hope
Is placed beyond the blue
Many friends and kindred
Have gone on before
And I cant feel at home
In this world anymore

   Refrain:
O Lord you know
I have no friend like you
If Heavens not my home
O lord what will I do
Angels beckon me
To Heavens open door
And I cant feel at home
In this world anymore   Verse 2:  Over in gloryland
They'll be no dyin there
The saints all shouting victory
And singing everywhere
I hear the voice of them
Who've gone on before
And I cant feel at home
In this world anymore     Refrain:
O Lord you know
I have no friend like you
If Heavens not my home
O lord what will I do
Angels beckon me
To Heavens open door
And I cant feel at home
In this world anymore   Verse 3:
Heavens expecting me
That's one thing I know
I fixed it up with Jesus
A long time ago
He will take me through
Though I am weak and poor
And I cant feel at home
In this world anymore   Refrain:
O Lord you know
I have no friend like you
If Heavens not my home
O lord what will I do
Angels beckon me
To Heavens open door
And I cant feel at home
In this world anymore  

Verse 4:
If you get there before me
Ill be there just the same
You'll hear me when I shout
O glory to his name
Ill fly away with Him
My savior I adore
And I cant feel at home
In this world anymore     Refrain:
O Lord you know
I have no friend like you
If Heavens not my home
O lord what will I do
Angels beckon me
To Heavens open door
And I cant feel at home
In this world anymore
