‘Bless This House’ Holy Card (127148)

Holy card featuring a prayer for a house blessing.

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 chimney 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 Gods Heavenly Light;

Bless the hearth ablazing there,

With smoke ascending like a prayer;

Bless the people here within.

Keep them pure and free from sin;

Bless us all that we may be

Fit, O Lord, to dwell on Thee.
