Ricky Skaggs This World Is Not My Home Lyrics

This World is not my Home
Verse 1:
This world is not my home
I’m just a pass’n through
My treasures and my hope
Is placed beyond the blue
Many friends and kindred
Have gone on before
And I can’t feel at home
In this world anymore
Refrain:
O Lord yyou know
I have no friend like you
If Heaven’s not my home
O lord what will I do
Angels beckon me
To Heaven’s open door
And Ican’t 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 can’t feel at home
In this world anymore
Verse 3:
Heaven’s 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 can’t feel at home
In this world anymore
Verse 4:
If you get there before me
I’ll be there just the same
You’ll hear me when I shout
“O glory to his name!”
I’ll fly away with Him
My savior I adore
And I can’t feel at home
In this world anymore.
