Seven Hearts, One Home

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some houses stand on stone and steel, Some stand on something you can't see, A quiet kind of love that's real, That holds through every storm and breeze. Seven of us around one table, And you made room for every one. [Chorus] You're the foundation of our family, The rock we built our lives upon, Our beacon when the night was stormy, Our faith to carry on. Happy birthday, Barbara, We're all because of you. [Verse 2] We never knew when times were tough, You kept the worry from our sight, Our happiness was at the center Of your world both day and night. From school days to the ballgame stands, To wedding vows, you held our hands. [Chorus] You're the foundation of our family, The rock we built our lives upon, Our beacon when the night was stormy, Our faith to carry on. Happy birthday, Barbara, We're all because of you. [Bridge] Through celebrations and through sorrow, Your passion carried us along, When we were weak, you were the strength That taught us how to still be strong. [Verse 3] Now grandkids run across your floors, And great-grandbabies know your face, Seven children, all so different, Yet held together by your grace. You taught us love and family Are everything, and always will be. [Chorus] You're the foundation of our family, The rock we built our lives upon, Our beacon when the night was stormy, Our faith to carry on. Happy birthday, Barbara, We're all because of you. [Outro] Our thanks could never fill the sky, But Mom, we hope you always knew, The joy we share, the love we live, It all comes back to you.
