Day 2: Blessed Forever

I will make Your faithfulness known through all generations

"Now be pleased to bless the house of Your servant, that it may continue forever in Your sight; for You, Sovereign Lord, have spoken, and with Your blessing the house of Your servant will be blessed forever” (2 Samuel 7:29).

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.
