I've never known a thing to be
so close to me as family:
Where love abounds on sacred grounds,
and bonds are made, nourished, stayed.
I trek through this mortality
and share my load with family.
I often say, and always know
my family will always grow!
Inside the walls, and hallowed halls
of our sweet home; Our safety dome,
we come from worldly cares to flee,
and unify as family!
This much is true; This much is sure,
Together, pains we will endure!
Unbroken still, determined will
we'll share as kin, and conquer sin!
and this we'll do as family
for time and all eternity!
