  1. God bless your hands, and bless your feet.
    Make them supple strong and fleet.
    God bless your limbs, and arms, and breast
    And the heart that I love best.
    God bless the beauty of your face.
    Told about your Heaven's grace
    God bless your hair, your lips, your eyes.
    Keep them candid as the skies
    In everything you say or do
    May you be gentle, faithful, true.
    Where You may walk, may God divine
    Guard and bless you, son of mine.
