The Lord Bless You and Keep You  

Song Introduction — The Lord Bless You and Keep You 

The Lord Bless You and Keep You is an original worship song inspired by Numbers 6:24–26, the ancient Aaronic Blessing spoken over God’s people. This song is written as a gentle prayer of blessing, inviting listeners to receive God’s protection, grace, and peace.

Rather than a performance-driven piece, this song carries a warm, prayerful tone with a flowing waltz rhythm. Its simple, memorable melody and tender delivery make it suitable for personal devotion, family worship, quiet prayer, or as a closing blessing in church gatherings.

Backstory of the Song 

This song was born out of a desire to let Scripture speak gently and personally into everyday life. Numbers 6:24–26 is one of the oldest recorded blessings in the Bible—words God Himself instructed the priests to speak over His people. These words have been prayed, spoken, and trusted for generations.

During the songwriting process, the focus was not on creating emotional intensity, but on creating space—space for rest, reassurance, and quiet faith. The music was shaped to feel like a blessing being sung over someone rather than sung at someone, allowing the listener to remain still and receive.

This song exists to linger. It is meant to be returned to in different seasons of life, carrying the same prayer each time: that God’s presence, peace, and faithful care would remain with His people.
