The Cricket's Song.
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.
