A Contented Home
Poet: J.J. Thorne

If we work and trust in faith,
Our labor will be blessed;
Joy and mercy will reach our home,
And make a home of rest.

If honesty we live, truth we serve -
We have done our best;
Joy and mercy will reach our home
And make a home of rest.

If we live by the dictates.
Of the conscience of our breast,
Joy and mercy will reach our home
And make a home of rest.

If our labor and deeds are good,
Satan only can infest,
Joy and mercy will reach our home.
And make a home of rest.

Divide with the poor, raise the weak-
Help the beggar and oppressed;
Joy and mercy will reach our home
And make a home of rest.

If we trust in God and believe in Christ,
This was the Savior's request;
Joy and mercy will reach our home
And make a home of rest.
