Help us illumine those who come our way
To encounter creations made new evermore
Lord open our windows and throw wide our doors
Give us a witness both joyous and bold
Set us apart like your people of old
Who lived by the faith you imparted by grace
Paint your blood on the doors on our heart’s dwellingplace
Reign over this household, Lord, I pray
Bless our endeavors as we learn to obey
We want your perfect will whatever it costs
Make our home as we take up our cross
For we know you’ll reward us for whatever is lost
Bridge
As we equip our children, as we labor and play
As we seek out your Word as we live out our days
As we care for our families, as we wait and we pray
May our home be a respite from the world and its ways.
Lord make our home a place of grace
Lord shine forth from the windows of this humble place
Where you Word lights the shadows of darkness and doubt
As we care for the souls who come in and go out.
Reign over this household, Lord, I pray
Bless our endeavors as we learn to obey
We want your perfect will whatever it costs
Make our home as we take up our cross
For we know you’ll reward us for whatever is lost
