Unless The Lord The House Shall Build,
The Weary Builders Toil In Vain;
Unless The Lord The City Shield,
The Guards A Useless Watch Maintain.

In Vain You Rise At Morning Break,
In Vain Your Late-Night Vigils Keep,
And Draining Days Of Work Partake—
Those Whom God Loves Fall Fast Asleep.

Yes, Children Are A Great Reward,
A Gift From God In Very Truth;
As Quiver Full Of Arrows Stored
Are Children Given In Days Of Youth.

How Blest Are Those Whose Lives Are Cheered
By Children’s Growth In Strength And Grace.
Within Their House No Foes Are Feared,
For God Keeps Watch Within That Place.
