Full Lyrics
Bless this house O Lord we pray,
Make it safe by night and day;
Bless these walls so firm and stout,
Keeping want and trouble out;
Bless the roof and chimneys tall,
Let thy peace lie over all;
Bless this door that it may prove,
Ever open to joy and love.
Bless these windows shining bright,
Letting in God's heav'nly light;
Bless the hearth ablazing there,
With smoke ascending like a prayer;
Bless the folk who dwell within,
Keep them pure and free from sin;
Bless us that we may be,
Fit O Lord to dwell with Thee;
Bless us all that one day we may dwell,
O Lord with Thee.
