A PRAYER OF PROTECTION

The light of God surround you
The love of God enfold you
The power of God protect you
The presence of God watch over you
Wherever you are,God is,
And all is well.
Amen.

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 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 a'blazing 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.
