God bless the corners of this house,

and be the lintel blessed,

and bless the hearth,

and bless the board,

and bless each place of rest.

Bless each door that opens wide to strangers and to kin,

and bless each crystal windowpane

that lets the sunshine in.

And bless the rooftree overhead,

and every sturdy wall.

The peace of man.

The peace of God.

The peace of love to All.”
