Lyrics Ricky Skaggs

Ricky Skaggs

This World Is Not My Home

This world is not my home

I'm 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

O Lord you 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 I can't feel at home

In this world anymore

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 cant feel at home

In this world anymore

Heavens 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 cant feel at home

In this world anymore

If you get there before me

Ill be there just the same

You'll 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.
