Lyics

FATHER of all, thy care we bless,

Which crowns our families with peace;

From thee they spring, and by thy hand

They have been and are still sustained.



To God, most worthy to be praised,

Be our domestic altars raised;

Who, Lord of Heaven, scorns not to dwell

With saints in their obscurest cell.



To thee may each united house,

Morning and night present its vows;

Our servants there, and rising race,

Be taught thy precepts, and thy grace.
