House-Warming

Our house anew is built at last, Despite the struggles of the past! A happy family now resides, With Almighty God us besides! Gone are the days of lack of space; The new house wears a painted face; Born is a harmony and peace That God-willingly shouldn’t ever cease! The house looks cozy and gorgeous; The cost is anybody’s guess; God bless our house and its in-mates, As we journey to Heaven’s gates! Our house must turn a happy home! All brethren are always welcome; Let love and prayer fill the air, And faces wear smiles and laughter! God bless this family and house; Let Jesus Christ be King and spouse; Let forgiving hearts show the world That wounds will heal, however old! Let brothers live and serve the Lord, As per the teachings of God’s Word! Let common blood and flesh stay strong, And emanate a happy song! Let parents feel proud of their sons! ‘Let parley work better than guns! ’ Let neighbors sense Christ’s own presence, Within the house and o’er the fence! Copyright by Dr John Celes 2-22-2009
