To Thee, their Friend, who from the heights of heaven

Guides them, and guards with more than mother’s care.

O 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!

O happy home, where Thou art not forgotten

When joy is overflowing, full and free,

O happy home, where every wounded spirit

Is brought, Physician, Comforter, to Thee.
