In the Name

Everyone knows my
memory’s poor;
It’s not much good,
But here it is.

There’s a man on the corner
Holding a sign,
Asking for help -
A blessing -
Lord know what he needs.

Lord knows, everyone knows,
My word’s not much good,
But here is His.

Bless you in the name
Of the Lord!
Be blessed
In the name of the Lord.

She’s sitting on a cooler
Holding up a hand,
Calling to me
A blessing.
Lord knows what she means.

Lord knows, everyone knows,
My name’s not much good,
But here is His.

The Lord bless you;
all of yours!
The Lord be with you
And keep you
Safe from harm.

Blessings of the Lord
Be upon you!
Bless you in the name
Of the Lord!
