Home Sweet Home

A home is a place where we are together, A home is a place where we care for each other A home is a place where there is no hesitation To ask for help, speak or lend a hand My home is where I can stay safe A place where all my sorrows go away My home is my heart that I always keep No wonder people call home, home sweet home As I grow older I understand why people call Home the best place on land A home is a blessing that everyone should get So I am blessed to have a roof over my head So donating 10 dollars isn’t too much My home is my treasure that everyone should get Now I realize treasure isn’t money or shiny things Treasure is the place which we call home I keep my home close to my heart And things close to your heart never fade away Our home is like our parent that takes all of the risks To keep us safe from storms and hail Our home keeps us safe from any puddle in our way But we really don’t acknowledge it at all We just take our home for granted But ask the people who don’t have a roof How grateful they are to have a roof over their heads Our home is more than just a roof and four walls It’s a parent, a guardian and most of all A part of our family It’s hard to imagine what would life be without home The first thing I want to see when I come back from school The smiling face of my family that’s blessed with a home Oh how grateful I am to have home sweet home
