194   LOVE AT HOME




[V1]

There is beauty all around,
When there’s love at home;
There is joy in every sound,
When There’s love at home.
Peace and plenty here abide,
Smiling fair on every side;
Time doth softly, sweetly glide,
When there’s love at home.

[C]
Love at home, love at home;
Time doth softly, sweetly glide,
When there’s love at home.

[V2]
In the cottage there is joy,
When there’s love at home;
Hate and envy ne’er annoy,
When there’s love at home.
Roses blossom ‘neath our feet,
All the earth’s a garden sweet,
Making life a bliss complete,
When there’s love at home.

[C]
Love at home, love at home;
Time doth softly, sweetly glide,
When there’s love at home.

[V3]
Kindly heaven smiles above,
When there’s love at home;
All the earth is filled with love,
When there’s love at home.
Sweeter sings the brooklet by,
Brighter beams the azure sky;
O, there’s One who smiles on high,
When there’s love at home.

[C]
Love at home, love at home;
Time doth softly, sweetly glide,
When there’s love at home.

[V4]
Jesus, make me wholly thine,
Then there’s love at home;
May thy sacrifice be mine,
Then there’s love at home.
Safely from all harm I’ll rest,
With no sinful care distressed;
Through thy tender mercy blessed,
When there’s love at home.

[C]
Love at home, love at home;
Time doth softly, sweetly glide,
When there’s love at home.
