Can't Feel At Home

Can't Feel At Home - The Carter Family

This world is not my home

I'm just passing through

My treasures and my hopes

Are all beyond the blue

Where many friends and kindred

Have gone on before

And I can't feel at home

In this world anymore

Over in Glory land

There is no dying there

The saints are shouting victory

And singing everywhere

I hear the voice of them

That I have heard before

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 would I do

Angels beckon me to heaven's open door

And I can't feel at home

In this world anymore

Heaven's expecting me

That's one thing I know

I fixed it up with

Jesus a long time ago

He will take me through

Though I am weak and poor

And I can't feel at home

In this world anymore

Oh I have a loving mother

Over in Glory land

I don't expect to stop

Until I shake her hand

She's gone on before

Just waiting at heaven's 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 would I do

Angels beckon me to heaven's open door

And I can't feel at home

In this world anymore
