The Ballard of Lincoln Home

Lincoln Home sits by the river's flow.
Her grounds are trim, Her windows glow.
Within her bounds in rooms of ease
things are done, many they please.
Aches are tended, minds are helped.
Spirits are raised by kindness felt.
So here's to you oh Lincoln Home fair.
Thanks be to God for all your care.
