This is my “realm” where I perform the work I best can do And here I always seem to feel especially near to You. For you have planned this small room such homely tasks for me That I can do them easily and keep my mind on Thee. The writings of the Holy Book, the lessons they all teach, I’ve but the live them day by day serenity to reach. Again when twilight time has come give me a short time, too, Here, through the deepening shadows, my tidied kitchen view. And solace find in simple thing accomplished here by me- A flaky pie, a loaf of bread, my family’s joy to see. The things that in this little home I do with practiced skill, Help me as well in other ways, Lord, to do Thy will. -Harriet Elmbald My Kitchen God bless my little kitchen, I love its every nook And bless me as I do my work, Wash pots and pans and cook. And the meals that I prepare Be seasoned from above, With Thy blessings and Thy grace, But most of all Thy love. As we partake of earthly food The table for us spread, We’ll not forget to thank Thee, Lord, Who gives us daily bread. So bless my little kitchen, God, And those who enter in, May they find nought but joy and peace And happiness therein. -unknown
