This World Is Not My Home Lyrics

This World is Not My Home
by Jim Reeves

C F C
This world is not my home I'm just a passing through
D7 G7
My treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue
C F C
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door
G7 C
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore

F C
Oh Lord you know I have no friend like you
D7 G7
If heaven's not my home then Lord what will I do
C F C
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door
G7 C
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore
F C
I have a loving mother just over in Glory land
D7 G7
And I don't expect to stop until I shake her hand
C F C
She's waiting now for me in heaven's open door
G7 C
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore
F C
Just over in Glory land we'll live eternally
D7 G7
The saints on every hand are shouting victory
C F C
Their songs of sweetest praise drift back from heaven's shore
G7 C
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore
