HOME.
There is a joy in home
The heartless ne'er can know,
Where secret springs of love and truth
In trustfulness o'erflow—
Where every day a light is shed
Still brighter o'er life's scene,
Reflecting love's endearing glance,
As it at first had been.

There is a joy in home,
Where heart responds to heart,
And every thought an echo finds,
While life is nought, apart
Where not a tone, a tear, or smile,
Can pass unheeded by,
But every glance is watched and read
By one untiring eye.
