O Blest the House, Whate'er Befall

Author: C. C. L. von Pfeil, 1712-84; C. Winkworth, 1827-78 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #190 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O blest the house, whate'er befall, Where Jesus Christ is all in all! Yea, if He were not dwelling there, How dark and poor and void it were! 2 O blest that house where faith ye find And all within have set their mind To trust their God and serve Him still And do in all His holy will. 3 O blest the parents who give heed Unto their children's foremost need And weary not of care or cost. May none to them and heav'n be lost! 4 Blest such a house; it prospers well. In peace and joy the parents dwell, And in their children's lot is shown How richly God can bless His own. 5 Then here will I and mine to-day A solemn cov'nant make and say: Though all the world forsake Thy Word, I and my house will serve the Lord.
