- 1O happy home, where Thou art loved the dearest,
- Thou loving Friend and Savior of our race,
- And where among the guests there never cometh
- One who can hold such high and honored place!
- 2O happy home, where two in heart united
- In holy faith, and blessed hope, are one,
- Whom death a little while alone divideth,
- And cannot end the union here begun!
- 3O happy home, whose little ones are given
- Early to Thee, in humble faith and prayer,
- To Thee, their friend, who from the heights of heaven
- Guides them, and guards with more than mother's care!
- 4O happy home, where each one serves Thee, lowly,
- Whatever his appointed work may be,
- Till every common task seems great and holy,
- When it is done, O Lord, as unto Thee!
