I.

Chorister of the hearth,

When stillness reigns, I sing

To God, Eternal King,

Praises for the fireside.

II.

Thy simple souls dwell here,

Content throughout the year.

Love garlands every day;

Peace keeps harsh words away.

III.

Grant the door open wide

For young and happy bride,

With husband by her side;

May their sweet dream come true.

IV.

When morning star doth rise

Joy comes; the baby cries;

New mother with glad eyes,

Beholds hers and Thine own.

V.

Make this a place of rest;

The place that God loves best;

The place where love abides;

God bless our happy home.

[pg 71]
