Classic Poem

The family altar in our home
Holds such a beauty rare;
Among the treasures of this life
There's none that can compare.

'Tis just about the evening hour
When day has spent itself
That Dad takes down the Bible
From its place upon the shelf.

We read the Word together and
We bow at Jesus' feet;
How precious is that fellowship!
It makes our day complete!

And all the burdens we possess
Are swallowed up in prayer;
The sweetness of this time with God
Reveals His love and care.

A family altar in the home!
How blessed and how true
That if we put God first — He'll bless!
We hope you have one too!
