655. Happy the Home

A         Bm   A    Bm  E  A
Happy the home when God is there,

E7  A    E     A  B7  E
And love fills ev-ery breast;

Bm       F#7   Bm    B7  E   B7    E    E7
When one their wish, and one their prayer,

A   D         A      E7 A
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.
