655. Happy the Home

G         Am   G    Am  D  G
Happy the home when God is there,

D7  G    D     G  A7  D
And love fills ev-ery breast;

Am       E7    Am    A7  D   A7    D    D7
When one their wish, and one their prayer,

G   C         G      D7 G
And one their heaven-ly rest.



[[Full Lyrics]]

[Verse 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.

[Verse 2]
Happy the home where Jesus’ name
Is sweet to every ear;
Where children early speak his fame,
And parents hold him dear.

[Verse 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.

[Verse 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.
