With knowledge of God's plan
We've much work to do
To restore faith in man
And in families too
In science there's success
As laws are applied
And for mankind's progress
Logic is supplied
The forefront place to learn
Is inside of the home
Where children can discern
The basics to be known
To safeguard children's virtues
Parents patiently train
And model morals and values
To pass on their good name
As children watch and observe
They explore and factor
As children learn to work and serve
They build up character
Where best to learn how to's?
Like making good decisions
So when a child's confused
They've the tools for discussions
The home is training for life
And for marriage, too
A husband and a wife
Have much work to do...
But, they're not alone
As we're all God's noblesse
Thus children, can't be owned
And we've His Light for success
