Graham Crossing asked if I could write a version of Aaron's blessing from Numbers 6: 24-26, for a baptism he was conducting. I was really happy with the result, and was privileged to use it again in a recent ordination service for our current minister, Maile Molitika, who was ordained on 24-2-06, at St John's Uniting Church in Narrandera. This was a moving service, with the added blessing of the Tongan Choir from Dee Why, who sang heaven into our hearts... Because I think people are using this song, I have now updated the MP3 from my demo version to the more professional version recorded on "The Message of the Cross".
Aaronic Blessing
The Lord bless you and keep you,
The Lord make His face shine upon you,
And the Lord be gracious unto you.
The Lord bless you and keep you,
The Lord make His face shine upon you,
And the Lord be gracious unto you.
The Lord lift His countenance upon you,
And give to you His Peace.
The Lord lift up His countenance,
Upon you,
And give to you His peace.
