And the blessing of the Lord is a long happy life
And the blessing of the Lord is a confident wife
And the blessing of the Lord is a peaceful home
With your children round your feet so you won’t grow old alone
And no matter where I go
And no matter where I go
I will always return
I will always return
To the Lord…to my Lord
And the blessing of the Lord is a satisfied mind
And the blessing of the Lord is the summer sunshine
And the lilies of the field they are clothed by His hand
And the birds in the air they are fed by His command
In the fear of the Lord is where wisdom begins
In the arms of the Lord there is grace for my sins
The anointing of the Lord fills my life with power
And the healing of the Lord melts the hardest heart
Brian Houston
