Artist/Band: Perry Como
Lyrics for Song: Bless This House
Lyrics for Album: Catch A Falling Star [2009]



Bless this house, O Lord we pray,

Make it safe by night and day . . .



Bless these walls so firm and stout,

Keeping want and trouble out . . .



Bless the roof and chimneys tall,

Let thy peace lie overall . . .



Bless this door that it may prove,

Ever open,

To joy and love . . .



Bless these windows shining bright,

Letting in God's Heavenly light,

Bless the hearth, ablazing there,

With smoke ascending like a prayer!



Bless the people here within,

Keep them pure and free from sin . . .



Bless us all that we may be,

Fit O Lord to dwell with thee . . .



Bless us all that one day we may dwell,

O Lord! With Thee!

Words and Music by Helen Taylor

and May H. Morgan ( a.k.a. Brahe ), 1927


Bless This House

Perry Como's 'Bless This House' stands as a quintessential example of his signature style, blending traditional pop with a warm, inviting vocal delivery. Recorded for the 2009 compilation 'Catch A Falling Star,' the track exemplifies Como's ability to craft melodies that feel both timeless and accessible. His voice, characterized by its gentle tone and impeccable phrasing, remains a defining element of mid-20th-century American pop music. While the song does not feature complex arrangements typical of later eras, its simplicity allows the melody to shine, reflecting the era's preference for straightforward, emotionally resonant compositions. As part of Como's extensive discography, this recording contributes to his legacy as a master of the easy-listening genre, showcasing his skill in creating music that appeals to a broad audience without sacrificing artistic integrity.
