The Priestly Blessing - Numbers 6:24-26

"The Lord bless you and keep you! The Lord let his face shine upon you, and be gracious to you! THe Lord Look upon you kindly and give you peace!"

This is a beautiful blessing, and it just makes you smile inside.There is a hymn we sing in church, #523, based off this blessing. "May God bless and keep you, May God's face shine on you, May God be kind to you and give you peace." And of course, it's a common favorite because it's a fast pace moving song, you sing through those lines twice, and you're done in about a minute :). Hopefully I can get a vid up of this hymn! If I beg my mother, she might play if for me!

I recommend visiting this site for an in-depth evaluation of this blessing:
