Haggard, Merle - This World Is Not My Home Lyrics






This world is not my home I'm just a-passin' 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

They're all expecting me and that's one thing I know
My Savior pardoned me and now I onward go
I know He'll take me through though I am weak and poor
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore

Just over in glory land 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
No, I can't feel at home in this world anymore

  9. P.... H....

    This world is not my home I'm just a-passin' 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

    I know He'll take me through
    though I am weak and poor
    And I can't feel at home in this world anymore
    ----------------------------
    Just over in glory land 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
    heaven's not my home then Lord what will I do?
    angels beckon me from heaven's open door
    And I can't feel at home in this world anymore

  18. T.... B....

    Haggard goodnight 👈🏿☝️

  19. T.... ....

    A year ago today you left this world. rest in heaven Merle

  20. A.... G....

    thge lord will bless him now

  21. j.... ....

    Does anyone know who that is singing with Merle at 0:52? Sounds a lot like Johnny.

  22. J.... A....

    Does anybody else have a problem with finding a picture of Jesus ? My wife and I were shopping last week when it dawned on us that there were none to be found.Nowhere.Nary a picture of Jesus to hang on the wall....it really woke us up.

    J.... A....

    @jawtek82 So....what ? I should not be concerned that I can't find any pictures of Jesus ?

    J.... A....

    +James Avery - No you shouldn't. I thought I explained that. But maybe you can find some on eBay. Probably some guy also selling pictures of Hannibal, Socrates, Ghengis Khan, Archimedes, Charlemagne, William Wallace, and Johannes Gutenberg. Does it concern you that you can't find any pictures of them?
    BTW, you say "it really woke us up." How so? Woke you up to what?

    J.... A....

    Leave it as is my friend, the scriptures give us no detail of his countenance, as in Isaiah 53:2 - He hath no form nor comeliness and when we shall see Him there is no beauty that we should desire Him. - All we do know is that those paintings of Him, drawn by Catholics, are absolutely inaccurate, the scriptures, which He inspired show that it is a shame for a man to have long hair (1 Cor. 11:14) - When we see Him for the first time my friend it shall be in Glory, with eyes able to look upon the visage of the Almighty.

    J.... A....

    @jawtek82 The closing of churches,the decline in Christianity,the rise of Islam.I think that you understand completely what I am saying,and you Eli,are nuts.

    J.... A....

    +James Avery - I understand that you are concerned that you cannot find a picture of Jesus. I do not understand why. At the time he lived he was not rich or in a position of governmental power so that his image would appear on statues or coinage. He was a Galilean preacher for about three years. Why would anyone have made an image of his likeness and preserved it for all those years?

  23. D.... G....

    god bless are Christians

  24. a.... a....

    why dislikes

  25. a.... a....

  43. T.... G....

    I hear Johnny in there. Sounds like they're putting the band back together.

    T.... G....

    I hope Willie does not join them too soon. I still love that guys music here.

    T.... G....

    heartfire451 If Willie is still smoking weed,he won't go to heaven. Sorry, but that's what the Bible says.Look it up.

    T.... G....

    the bible does not say that.

    T.... G....

    J Bone its like the movie "Michael" where john Travolta plays the arch angel micael come back to earth and they ask him about sex in heaven and he says "whatta ya think he invented it" so I'm sure willies ok to smoke one every once in a while if there is even a need for getting high in heaven and this is comin from a pot head that is stoned right now

    T.... G....

    J Bone lol
