Lyrics The Carter Family

The Carter Family

I Can't Feel At Home In This World Anymore

This world is not my home, I'm just a-passing through

My treasures and my hopes are all beyond the blue;

Where many Christian children have gone on before,

And I can't feel at home in this world anymore.

Chorus:

Oh Lord, You know I have no friend but you

If Heaven's not my home, Oh Lord what would I do?

Angels have taken me to Heaven's open door

And I can't feel at home in this world anymore.

Over in glory land there is no dying there

The saints are shouting Vict'ry and singing everywhere.

I hear the voice of Nell that I have heard before

And I can't feel at home in this world anymore.
