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 of the air you know they are fed by His command In the fear of the Lord is where wisdom begins In the arms of the Lord I still find grace for my sins The anointing of the Lord fills my life with power But it's the healing of the Lord that can melt the hardest heart
