#9This World is Not My Home

FAREWELL! farewell! to all below, My Jesus calls and I must go: I'll launch my boat upon the sea, This land is not the land for me. This world is not. my home; This world is not my home; This world is all a wilderness; This world is not my home.

I found the winding path of sin A rugged path to travel in; Beyond this fading world I see The land the Saviour bought for me. This world is not my home, &c.

Farewell! my friends! I'll not stay here– The home I seek will soon appear; Where Christ is not I cannot be; This land is not the land for me. This world is not my home, &c.

Praise be to God, our hope's on high; The angels sing and so do I: Where seraphs bow and bend the knee, O that's the land–the land for me. This world is not my home, &c.
