This World Is Not My Home

(album: Solo: Songs My Dad Loved - 2009)

This world is not my home
I'm just a passn 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

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 can't feel at home
In this world anymore

Over in gloryland
They'll be no dying 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

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

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.
