Your House of Happiness

Your House of Happiness

Take what God gives , O friend of mine
And build your house of happiness .
Perchance some have been given more ,
But many have been given less.
The treasure lying at your feet ,
Whose value you but faintly guess ,
Another builder looking on ,
Would barter heaven to possess .
Have you found work that you can do?
Is there a heart that loves you best ?
Is there a spot somewhere called home ,
Where spent and worn your soul can rest ?

A friend , a tree , a book ,a song ,
A dog , which loves your hand’s caress ,
A story of health to meet life’s needs ,
Oh , build your house of happiness .
Trust not tomorrow’s dawn to bring
The dreamed-of joy which we wait ,
We have enough of pleasant things
To house our souls in goodly state ,
Tomorrow , time’s relentless stream
May bear what now we have away ,
Take what God gives , O friend ,
And build your house of happiness today .

God Bless !
On behalf of the community at The Neighborhood...Welcome! We are a new church preparing to get started in Easley, SC.

Preview Service on February 5th at the Easley Cinemas behind Applebee's. Service starts at 10 am. Join us at 9:30 am for coffee.

We're sincerely glad you're exploring our church community. We would love for you to join us as we serve Easley and the surrounding community. Take a look around and if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask. The heart of the Neighborhood was birthed out of the call to ENGAGE those who are far from God with the Gospel, EQUIP Christ followers, and EMPOWER them to change the world through lives of irresistible influence.
