The two unassuming men touched the hearts of thousands of South Africans with their a cappella version of Jim Reeves' classic country song 'This World Is Not My Home.'

The video has garnered almost 400,000 views and more than 400 comments from people applauding the men's angelic voices.

Watch here: 

Lyrics from the song include:

"This world is not my home, I'm just a-passing through."

"Oh Lord, you know I have no friend like you. If heaven's not my home, then Lord, what will I do?"
