Verse 2 Oh blest that house where faith ye find, and all within have set their mind To trust their God and serve Him still, and do in all His holy will. Verse 3 Blest, where their prayers shall daily rise as fragrant incense to the skies, While in their lives the world is taught that forms without the heart are naught. Verse 4 Blest, where the busy hands fulfil their proper task with ready skill, While through their different works ye see One spirit run of unity. Verse 5 Blest such a house, it prospers well, in peace and joy the parents dwell, And in their children's lot is shown how richly God can bless His own. Verse 6 Then here will I and mine today a solemn covenant make, and say, Though all the world forsake Thy Word, I and my house will serve the Lord....
