O, let us exalt our dear Lord and proclaim,
In songs of true gratitude, praise to His name!

Lyrics
My heart recalls the days of yore,
Those happy days that come no more,
Within my home's fond shelt'ring care,
What sacred mem'ries cluster there.

There shone the sun with fairest beam
O'er shady wood and purling stream,
And songbirds caroled wild and free
In nature's purest harmony.

Tho' storms might beat and fierce winds blow,
Bright shone the firelight's cheerful glow,
And home meant rest for weary feet,
A haven blest, a welcome sweet.

Oh, blessings rich beyond compare—
A father's love, a mother's prayer!
My voice lifts high a song of praise
For that dear home of childhood days.

Chorus:
My childhood home, so dear to me,
The place of hallowed memory!
My wand'ring feet afar may roam,
But still I love my childhood home.
