Lyrics: Yes
 
This world is not my home, I'm just a-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

Oh 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 mother, just over in Gloryland
And I don't expect to stop, until I shake her hand
She's waiting now for me in heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore

Oh 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
 
INTERLUDE

Just over in Gloryland, 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

Oh 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
