This World Is Not My Home Lyrics - Solo: Songs My Dad Loved - Ricky Skaggs

This World is not my Home 

Verse 1: 

This world is not my home 

Im 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 

Refrain: 

O Lord yyou 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 Icant feel at home 

In this world anymore 

Verse 2: 

Over in gloryland 

Theyll be no dyin there 

The saints all shouting 

victory 

And singing everywhere 

I hear the voice of them 

Whove gone on before 

And I cant feel at home 

In this world anymore 

Verse 3: 

Heavens expecting me 

Thats 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 

Verse 4: 

If you get there before me 

Ill be there just the same 

Youll 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.
