Lyrics

Chorus

O 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 anymore.

Verse 1

This world is not my home I'm just a passing thru, 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.

Verse 2

They're all expecting me and that’s one thing I know, My savior pardoned me and now I onward go; I know he'll take me thru, tho' I am meek and poor, And I can't feel at home in this world anymore.

Verse 3

Just up in gloryland we'll live eternally, The saints on every hand are shouting victory, Their songs of sweetest praise drift back from heaven's shores And I can't feel at home in this world anymore.
