This World is Not My Home

Mickey Gilley · Precious Memories [Finer Arts] [1999]

This world is not my home, I'm just 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 amymore.



They're all expecting me, and that's one thing I know

My saviors pardoned me and now I on the go

I know He'll take me through I am weak and poor

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 amymore.



Or right.

--- Instrumental ---



Just up in gloryland we'll know eternity

The saints on every hand are shouting victory

The song of praise is back from heavens 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, oh Lord what will I do

The angels beckon me to heaven's open door

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



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