257 THIS WORLD IS NOT MY HOME (F)

---

This world is not my home I'm just passing through 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.

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.

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 thro' tho' I am weak and poor, And I can't feel at home in this world anymore

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.

I have a loving Savior up in glory-land, I don't expect to stop until with Him I stand, He's waiting now for me in heaven's open door, And I can't feel at home in this world anymore

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.

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

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.
