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 overall

Bless this door that it may prove

Ever open

To joy and love

Bless these windows shining bright

Letting in God's heavenly light

Bless the hearth the painting there

With smoke ascending like a prayer

Bless the folk who dwell within

Keep them pure and free from sin

Bless us all that we may be

Fit o lord to dwell with thee

Bless us all that one day we may dwell

O lord with thee
