bless to me, O God, 
the earth that is beneath me, 

bless to me, O God, 
my wife
and my children

and bless, O God, 
myself
who have care of them.

Bless to me
my wife and my children, 
and bless, O God, 
myself, 
who have care of them. 

Bless, O God, the thing 
on which my eye doth rest, 
Bless, O God, the thing 
on which my hope doth rest, 
Bless, O God, my reason
and 
my purpose, 
Bless, O bless Thou them, 
Thou, 
God of life; 

Bless, O God, 
my reason and my purpose, 
Bless, O Bless
Thou them, 
Thou, God of Life
