Lyrics:
1.Where can we give and gain more from the giving?
All that we live for is within our home:
People who want to share help us bear all our care.
Our home is where the Lord has laid the feast of love.

2.Where do we learn to sing the songs of gladness?
And when we yearn, where is our need fulfilled?
People who want to share help us bear all our care.
No wind can tear the sturdy walls we build with love.

3.Where can we rest from trou-bles that surround us?
After the test is there a place of peace?
People who want to share help us bear all our care.
O Lord, let paradise be filled with home’s bright love.
