A Home is a Haven When Storms are Kept Out

To open the windows is to let in the wind
And if the breezes blow gentle, you do
But you shutter them tight when storms blow hard
For a storm in your house you do rue

Then you look through the windows with awe in your eye
At the winds and the darkened sky
You look at the fury, but you keep it outside
For you fear when the storms come nigh

A house is a haven only when storms are kept out
A home shelter when windows are tight
It provides place to watch the storms pass
While keeping safely away from their might 

Alternate last couple of lines:
It provides place to watch for storms and to watch them pass
While safety away from their might

Or: A house is a haven only when storms are kept out
And a home shelter when windows are tight
A home provides place to watch the storms pass
While keeping safely away from their might
