Happy the Home When God Is There

  Happy the Home When God Is There (.midi)
  Happy the Home When God Is There (.mp3)

1.	Happy the home when God is there, 
	and love fills every breast; 
	when one their wish, and one their prayer,
	
	and one their heavenly rest. 


2.	Happy the home where Jesus' name 
	is sweet to every ear; 
	where children early speak his fame, 
	and parents hold him dear. 


3.	Happy the home where prayer is heard,
	
	and praise is wont to rise; 
	where parents love the sacred Word 
	and all its wisdom prize. 


4.	Lord, let us in our homes agree 
	this blessed peace to gain; 
	unite our hearts in love to thee, 
	and love to all will reign.
