0:00 Just Home and Love, the words are small,

0:03 four little letters unto each,

0:06 and yet you will not find in all the wide and

0:11 gracious range of speech to more so tenderly

0:15 complete when angels talk in heaven above.

0:19 I'm sure they have no words more sweet than

0:23 Home and Love. Just Home and Love,

0:26 it's hard to guess which of the two were best

0:30 to gain. Home without Love is bitterness.

0:34 Love without Home is often pain.

0:37 No,

0:37 each alone will seldom do. Somehow they

0:41 travel hand and glove. If you win one,

0:45 you must have two, both Home and Love,

0:49 and if you've both,

0:50 well then I'm sure you ought to sing the

0:54 whole day long.

0:56 It doesn't matter if you're poor,

0:59 with these to make, divine your song,

1:03 and so I praisefully repeat when angels talk

1:08 in heaven above. There are no words more

1:13 simply sweet than Home and Love.
