This World Is Not My Home

Jim Reeves
This world is not my home I'm just a passing 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
I have a loving mother just over in gloryland
And I don't expect to stop until I shake her hand
She's waiting now for me in 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
Just over in gloryland
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
THE GREAT JUDGEMENT MORNING LYRICS
窗体顶端
窗体底端
I dreamed that the great judgment morning
Had dawned and the trumpet had blown
I dreamed that all nations had gathered
To judgment before the white throne

From the throne came a bright shining angel


And he stood on the land and the sea
And swore with his hand raised to heaven
That time was no longer to be

And oh what weeping and wailing


As the lost were told of their fate
They cried for the rocks and the mountains
They prayed but their prayers were too late

The rich man was there but his money


Had melted and vanished away
A pauper stood there in the judgment
His debts were too many to pay

The widow was there and the orphan


God heard and remembered their cries
No sorrow in heaven forever
God wiped all the tears from their eyes

And the souls that had put off salvation


Not tonight I'll get saved by and by
No time now to think of religion
At last they must find time to die

And oh what weeping and wailing


As the lost were told of their fate
They cried for the rocks and the mountains
They prayed but their prayers were too late

Amazing grace, How sweet the sound


That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost, but now I am found,
Was blind, but now I see.

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,


And grace my fears relieved.
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares


I have already come,
'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far
And grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promised good to me


His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.

Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,


And mortal life shall cease
I shall possess within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.

When we've been there ten thousand years


Bright shining as the sun,
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we've first begun.

The Pale Horse and His Rider


Hank Williams
Listen poor sinner; you`re driftin` away
From the Dear Saviour; who`s pleading to- day
What will you do; when the Saviour ain`t nigh
When the Pale Horse and his rider goes by?
The time now ain`t long; when the Saviour will come
Then you`ll be judged; by the deeds you have done
On that judgment day; you`ll weep and you`ll cry
When the Pale Horse and his rider goes by?
When that trumpet sounds; on the sinners below
Not even the angels; in heaven will know
Then`s when you`ll wish; you had Jesus nigh
When the Pale Horse and his rider goes by?
Won`t you redeem; your poor wicked soul
You can`t pay your way; with Silver and Gold
If you`re not saved; you`ll be lost in the night
When the Pale Horse and his rider goes by?

"Belshazzar"

Well the Bible tells about a man


Who ruled Babylon and all it's land
Around the city he built a wall
And declared that Babylon would never fall

He had concubines and wives


He called his Babylon "Paradise"
Upon his throne he drank and ate
But for Belshazzer it was getting late

For he was weighed in the balance and found wanting


His kingdom was divided, couldn't stand
He was weighed in the balance and found wanting
His houses were built upon the sand

Well the people feast and drank their wine


And praised the false gods of his time
All holy things were scorned and mocked
Suddenly all their mocking stopped
On the wall there appeared a hand
Nothing else, there was no man
In blood the hand began to write
And Belshazzar couldn't hide his fright

For he was weighed in the balance and found wanting


His kingdom was divided, couldn't stand
He was weighed in the balance and found wanting
His houses were built upon the sand

Well no one around could understand


What was written by the mystic hand
Belshazzar tried but couldn't find
A man who could give him piece of mind

Daniel the prophet, a man of God


He saw the writing on the wall in blood
Belshazzar asked him what it said
And Daniel turned to the wall and read

"My friend you're weighed in the balance and found wanting


Your kingdom is divided, it can't stand
You are weighed in the balance and found wanting
Your houses are built upon the sand"

Battle of Armageddon
There's a mighty battle coming and it's well now on its way.
It'll be fought at Armageddon, it shall be a sad, sad day.
In the Book of Revelation, words in chapter sixteen say
There'll be gathered there great armies for that battle on that day.
(Refrain)
All the way from the gates of Eden to the Battle of Armageddon
There's been troubles and tribulation, there'll be sorrow and despair.
He has said "Be ye not troubled for these things shall come to pass."
Then your life will be eternal when you dwell with Him atlast.
Turn the pages of your Bible, in St. Matthew you will see,
Start with chapter twenty-four and read from one to thirty-three.
In our Savior's blessed words He said on earth, He prophesised,
For He spoke of this great battle that is coming by and by.
(Refrain)
There'll be nation against nation, there'll be war and rumor of war.
There'll be great signs in Heaven, in the sun, the moon, the stars.
Oh, the hearts of men shall fail them, there'll be gnashing of the teeth.
Those who seek it will recieve it, mercy at the Savior's feet.

Why me Lord what have I ever done


to deserve even one of the pleasures I've known
Tell me, Lord, what did I ever do
that was worth lovin' you or the kindness you've shown
Lord help me, Jesus, I've wasted it so
help me Jesus I know what I am
but now that I know that I've needed you so
help me, Jesus, my soul's in your hand
Try me, Lord, if you think there's a way
I can try to repay all I've taken from you
maybe Lord I can show someone else
what I've been through myself, on my way back to you
Lord help me, Jesus, I've wasted it so
help me Jesus I know what I am
but now that I know that I've needed you so
help me, Jesus, my soul's in your hand
Lord help me, Jesus, I've wasted it so
help me Jesus I know what I am
but now that I know that I've needed you so
help me Jesus my souls in your hand
Jesus, my soul's in your hand.

A man sat on a mountainside
A carpenter by trade
Teaching his disciples
While they knelt and prayed

He blessed the poor and simple


And he brought the mourners joy
He came to heal the blind and lame
They came not to destroy

When smitten by his enemies


He turned the other cheek
He brought strength of God and morals
To mortals who were weak

He told of false prophets


Who wore a sheep's disguise
And he warned us not to trust him
Or to listen to his lies

Hey, the sermon on the mountainside


Will live eternally
He'll lead us to the kingdom
That he promised you and me

So take this straight and narrow


And do good things that count
Make up your mind to live by
The sermon on the mount
A Satisfied Mind
Porter Wagoner
How many times have you heard someone say
"If I had his money, I could do things my way?"
But little they know that it's so hard to find
One rich man in ten with a satisfied mind
Once I was wading in fortune and fame
Everything that I dreamed for to get a start in life's game
But suddenly it happened, I lost every dime
But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind
Money can't buy back your youth when you're old
Or a friend when you're lonely, or a love that's grown cold
The wealthiest person is a pauper at times
Compared to the man with a satisfied mind
When life has ended, my time has run out
My friends and my loved ones, I'll leave, there's no doubt
But there's one thing for certain, when it comes my time
I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind

Sanctified
Johnny Cash
Have a little drink
No, thank you, brother
Want to get rich?
Don't need it brother
Wanna fool around?
No, thank you sister
Ain't you heard that
That old evil man within me died?
Let's have a party
I ain't going
What you gonna do?
Gonna keep praying
And keep working out my salvation
Trying to get sanctified
No more condemnation, repented
Jesus brought salvation, He saved me
Justification brought me safely to His side
And as I get to know Him more
He gives me a taste of the coming glory
And I'm trying to whip the devil
I'm trying to get sanctified
Sanctified, sanctified
I'm working to whip the devil
I’m trying to get sanctified
Don't go to church
Yes, I'm going
Why you read that old Bible?
'Cause I like it
Well, I don't believe in God
Well, God bless you
You ain't got no argument
For what I feel inside
Aw, have a little fun
That's what I'm having
Life's passing you by
I can hardly wait
Well, I've got my mind set upon eternity
Trying to get sanctified
And there's no more condemnation, I repented
Jesus brought salvation, He saved me
Justification brought me safely to His side
And as I get to know Him more
He gives me a taste of the coming glory
And I'm trying to whip the devil
Trying to get sanctified
Sanctified, sanctified
Sanctified, sanctified
Yes, I'm trying to whip the devil
I'm trying to get sanctified
Sanctified, sanctified
Sanctified, sanctified
I'm working out my salvation
Trying to get sanctified
Sanctified
