Lyrics

Bless This House

Bless this house, O Lord, we pray

Make it safe by night and day

Bless these walls so firm and stout

Keeping want and troubles out

Bless the roof and chimney top

Let thy love flow all about

Bless this house that it may prove

Ever open to joy and truth

Bless us all that we may be

Fit, O Lord, to dwell with thee

Bless us so that one day we

May dwell, dear Lord, with thee
