Lyrics:

CHORUS
This world is not my home
I am a heavenly child
This world is not my home
You've just placed me here for awhile

VERSE 1
To go and make disciples of all nations
Proclaim Your glory and unending grace
To be the hands and feet of Jesus
For all who need Your touch,
But I can't wait to see Your face

VERSE 2
To love You Lord with all my heart and strength and mind,
The love You've given, freely give away
To act justly and love mercy
Walk humbly with my God
But I can't wait to see Your face
