Lyrics
The Lord bless you and keep you
Make His face shine upon you
And be gracious to you
The Lord turn His face toward you
And give you peace
Full Lyrics From Original Artists:
The Blessing - Kari Jobe, Elevation Worship, Cody Carnes
A gift from the Churches of Hawai‘i, The Hawai‘i Blessing was recorded during the first week of May 2020 by worship leaders from 25 churches across all 6 major islands of Hawai‘i. During this time of sheltering-in-place, isolation and uncertainty about the future, we could all use a blessing and a sense of togetherness. In Hawai‘i, we call that ‘ohana - family.
Wherever you are: We Are Here for Each Other. #passtheblessing
This collaboration was a powerful a experience for every person involved. Each contributed the gift of him or herself, and the sum is far greater than the parts. We hope this will bless you.
