I don't really like the version in the Folksinger's Wordbook (page 355), but here it is. It's more-or-less the Carter song, with the second verse missing. I CAN'T FEEL AT HOME IN THIS WORLD ANYMORE [Verse 1] This world is not my home, I'm just a-passing through, My treasures and my hopes are all beyond the blue; Where many Christian children 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 nELL 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 taken me to Heaven's open door, And I can't feel at home in this world anymore. Silber & Silber, Folksinger's Wordbook (Oak Publications, New York, 1973) page 355
