    “As Peter sat on a marble stone”

    Share Share Post
    As Peter sat on a marble stone
    The Lord came to himself alone.
    What ails you peter what makes you weak?
    O Lord God it is a toothache.
    Get up peter and be thou fair,
    And carry those lines for my sake
    And if you say this prayer
    you never shall be troubled with a toothache
    God bless the corners of this house.
    And be the lintel blest.
    And bless the heart and bless the board
    And bless each place of rest.
    And bless the door that opens wide
    To strangers as to kin
    And bless each crystal window pane
    That lets the starlight in
    And bless the roof tree over our head
    And every sturdy wall,
    The peace of God, the peace of man
    The peace of love on all.
