- Happy Sunday! I filmed this on Friday knowing that Saturday was going to be so very busy with our daughter's baptism. And we were, and it was a most wonderful day! Deacon Mike was the celebrant - we were so grateful to have him! - and our daughter did wonderfully! She was nervous but attentive and I think she will remember today for the rest of her life. 💖
So now, we are blessed in this home to have our daughter welcomed officially into the church and God's family. But in this hymn, they are referring to the house of the Father, where we will find true joy: "The Father’s house, the Father’s heart,
All that the Son is given
Made ours-the objects of His love
And He, our joy in Heav’n."
Have a beautiful Sunday - some sing with me!
P.s. A few pics from our daughter's baptism yesterday!!!

How Blest A Home, The Father's House

1. How blest a home! The Father’s house!
There love divine doth rest;
What else could satisfy the hearts
Of those in Jesus blest?
His home made ours-His Father’s love
Our heart’s full portion given,
The portion of the Firstborn Son,
The full delight of Heav’n.
[2. Oh, what a home! The Son who knows,
He only-all His love;
And brings us as His well belovèd,
To that bright rest above,
Dwells in His bosom-knoweth all
That in that bosom lies,
And came to earth to make it known,
That we might share His joys.]
3. Oh, what a home! There fullest love
Flows through its courts of light;
The Son’s divine affections flow
Throughout its depth and height.
And full response the Father gives,
To fill with joy the heart-
No cloud is there to dim the scene,
Or shadow to impart.
4. Oh, what a home! But such His love
That He must bring us there,
To fill that home, to be with Him,
And all His glory share.
The Father’s house, the Father’s heart,
All that the Son is given
Made ours-the objects of His love
And He, our joy in Heav’n.
