Blessing of a New House

O heavenly Father,
Almighty God,
we humbly beseech Thee to bless
and sanctify this house
and all who dwell therein
and everything else in it,
and do Thou vouchsafe to fill it with all good things; grant to them, O Lord,
the abundance of heavenly blessings
and from the richness of the earth
every substance necessary for life,
and finally direct their desires
to the fruits of Thy mercy.
At our entrance, therefore,
deign to bless and sanctify this house
as Thou didst deign to bless the house of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob;
and may the angels of Thy light,
dwelling within the walk of this house,
protect it and those who dwell therein.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
