Wood and Stone
Build Strong that Quite Home
Not of wood and stone, use a gentle deed.
Begin today and have no final date.
Build strong that quiet home that you shall need.
*
In the garden where you will plant the seed,
Sow with care and good fortune will await.
Not of wood and stone, use a gentle deed.
*
Angry and dreary words, these do not heed,
Let only your heart determine your fate.
Build strong that quiet home that you shall need.
*
Stand watchful against the troublesome weed,
Be quick to forgive and keep clean the slate.
Not of wood and stone, use a gentle deed.
*
Softness of your touch, let it take the lead.
Swing open wide that door and do not wait,
Build strong that quiet home that you shall need.
*
Let it grow free with all that love does feed.
Goodwill to all and leave no place for hate.
Not of wood and stone, use a gentle deed.
Build strong that quiet home that you shall need.
