[Brian McKnight & Take 6]
Bless this house, O Lord, we pray
Make it safe by night and day
Bless these walls so firm and stout
Keeping want and trouble out

[Brian McKnight]
Bless the roof and chimneys tall
Let thy peace lie overall

[Brian McKnight & Take 6]
Bless this door that it may be
Ever open to joy and love
Bless these windows shining bright
Letting in God's heavenly light
Bless the hearth, a-blazing there
With smoke ascending like a prayer, ooh, ooh
Ah ooh

Bless us all that we may be
Fit, O Lord, to dwell with thee
Bless us all that one day we may dwell
O Lord, with thee
May dwell O Lord with thee

He is one of the very few leggiero tenors in the pop genre. McKnight is perhaps most recognized for his strong falsetto and belting range.
