Summary
Home Life Made Beautiful
In Story, Song, Sketch and Picture.
Out of the infinite
Sea of bliss,
The great All-Father
Has sent me this
Drop of the ocean
Of live divine;
Joy of my being,
Baby mine.
Never was gift
So fair to see,
Angels of heavens
Might envy me.
Thrills my soul with
The wonder and bliss
That the great All-Father
Hath sent me this.
Once in the home
There were only two,
Three are completer,
And heaven breaks through,
Flooding with glory
The fair home nest,
Where Father and Mother
And Babe are blest.
This is my Baby!
Sweet as a rose,
Sweet as the bud
That must yet unclose.
Out of the infinite
Come to be mine!
bless Thee and praise Thee,
Father Divine.
