And love fills every breast;

When one their wish, and one their prayer,

And one their heavenly rest.

~

Happy the home where Jesus' Name

Is sweet to every ear;

Where children early lisp His fame,

And parents hold Him dear.

~

Happy the home where prayer is heard,

And praise is used to rise;

Where parents love the sacred Word

That makes us truly wise.

~

Lord, let us in our homes agree,

This blessed peace to gain;

Until our hearts in love to Thee,

And love to all will reign."
