HEART OF HOME

"Lord, let our house be something more
Than just a shelter with a door;
     May its windows glow with light,
     Shedding radiance through the night.
Not just a glitter of glass and chrome,
But give it the 'feel' of a happy home.




Let it have flowers, a well-loved book,
Soft cushions in a quiet nook.
     May it be more than downy bed,
     Or snowy cloth with silver spread;
Lend it some smiles, warm sympathy,
With kindly thoughts, true charity -
     That all may recall, though far they roam,
     That God was there - in the heart of home."
