Lyrics:
This world is not my homeI’m just a-passing throughMy treasures are laid upSomewhere beyond the blue.
The angels beckon meFrom heaven’s open doorAnd I can’t feel at homeIn this world anymore.
Oh Lord, you knowI have no friend like youIf heaven’s not my homeThen Lord, what will I do?
The angels beckon meFrom heaven’s open doorAnd I can’t feel at homeIn this world anymore.
I have a loving motherJust up in GlorylandAnd I don’t expect to stopUntil I shake her hand.
She’s waiting now for meIn heaven’s open doorAnd I can’t feel at homeIn this world anymore.
Oh Lord, you knowI have no friend like youIf heaven’s not my homeThen Lord, what will I do?
The angels beckon meFrom heaven’s open doorAnd I can’t feel at homeIn this world anymore.
Just over in GlorylandWe’ll live eternallyThe saints on every handAre shouting victory.
Their songs of sweetest praiseDrift back from heaven’s shoreAnd I can’t feel at homeIn this world anymore.
Oh Lord, you knowI have no friend like youIf heaven’s not my homeThen Lord, what will I do?
The angels beckon meFrom heaven’s open doorAnd I can’t feel at home
In this world any more
