A Little Heaven Here - February 1, 1956

Photo by: Lucrecia Mouser
God planned that mother's arms should bear,
Her babe close to her breast;
And furthermore He planned that dad,
The little one would bless.
How great the tie to bind the home,
In blessed unity;
Great is the home of oneness here,
Where there is purity.

God planned that home should ever be,
A little heaven here;
Where peace and love would dominate,
And rule in every sphere.
Behold Christ stands at every door,
And seeks each home to bless;
And when a home is built by Him,
It stands each rugged test.

A little heaven here on earth,
That is the Father's plan;
And such shall be if we but build,
On Rock and not on sand.
A little heaven here on earth,
O, what a blessed thought;
And such can be our lot while here,
If home in God is wrought.
