                                        Words by Helen Taylor
                                        May H. Morgan ( a.k.a. Brahe ) 1927

                                        Bless this house, Oh 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 heavenly 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 Oh Lord to dwell with thee
                                        Bless us all that we, one day, may dwell
                                        Oh Lord, we pray

                                        이 집을 축복하소서
 
                                        이 집을 축복하소서 우리가 기도하옵기는,
                                        당신의 축복으로 이 집이 밤낮으로 안전하게 하시고
                                        당신의 축복으로 이 벽을 튼튼하고 두텁게하여 필요한것
                                        들을 지켜주시고 해로운것으로부터 막아주시고

                                        당신의 축복으로 이 지붕과 굴뚝을 높게 하셔서 당신의
                                        평화가 집안곳곳에 내리게 하시고
                                        당신의 축복으로 이 문이 항상 기쁨과 사랑을 향해 열게 하소서.
 
                                        당신의 축복으로 이 창들이 하나님의 천국의 빛이
                                        들어와 환히 빛나게 하시고
                                        당신의 축복으로 이 집안에 난로가 불타오르게 하시고
                                        연기가 기도처럼 피어오르게 하시고

                                        당신의 축복으로 이 집에 사는 이들이 정결하고 죄가 없게
                                        지켜주시고
                                        당신과 함께 살기에 합당하게금 우리모두를 축복하시고
                                        언젠가는 당신과 함께 살수 있도록 우리 모두를 축복하소서.
