The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In this world we have our trials
sometimes lonesome, sometimes blue
but the hope of life eternal
Makes all old hopes brand new
And I don't want to get adjusted to this world, to this world
I've got a home so much better
and I'm gonna go there sooner or later
And I don't want to get adjusted to this world, to this world
Lord, I'm growing old and weary
and there's no place that feels like home
Saviour come, (?)
to where I (?)
And I don't want to get adjusted to this world, to this world
I've got a home so much better
and I'm gonna go there sooner or later
And I don't want to get adjusted to this world, to this world
And I don't want to get adjusted to this world, to this world.
