Subject: Lyr/Tune Add: BLESS THIS HOUSE (Bray/Taylor) From: Musicman Date: 12 Jul 99 - 02:41 AM here you go..... Bless This House Words & music By May H. Bray, Helen Taylor Copyright: Copyright 1932, Boosey & Co. Ltd. Bless this house, O Lord we pray, Make it safe by night and day; Bless these walls, so firm and stout, Keep-ing want and trou-ble out, Bless the roof and chim-neys tall, Let Thy peace lie o-ver all; Bless this door, that it may prove E-ver o-pen to joy and love. Bless these win-dows shi-ning bright, Let-ting in God's heav'n-ly light; Bless the hearth a-blaz-ing there, With smoke as-cend-ding like a prayer; Bless the peo-ple here with-in, 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 we one day May dwell, O Lord, with Thee.

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Bless This House (Bray/Taylor) From: Jim Dixon Date: 02 Feb 11 - 10:47 PM I think we need another copy of the lyrics without all those hyphens, so it can be found more easily with a search engine. By the way, did anyone notice that the previous version spelled "ascending" with two D's? 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 people here 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 we one day May dwell, O Lord, with Thee. |
