This world is not my home, I’m just passing through
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.
After the toil and the heat of the day, after my troubles are past,
After the sorrows are taken away, I shall see Jesus at last.
He will be waiting for me – Jesus so kind and true;
On His beautiful throne, He will welcome me home-
After the day is through.
