More than 100 virtual choirs from nations and cities around the world have produced a phenomenon known as “The Blessing.” The United Kingdom “Blessing” was the second virtual production of this song.

The Citizen will post these multi-national and multi-lingual versions on a regular basis, most based on Numbers 6:24–26:

The Lord bless you
and keep you;
the Lord make his face shine on you
and be gracious to you;
the Lord turn his face toward you
and give you peace.

For the story behind “The Blessing,” read the article in Christianity Today.

From the May 3, 2020 YouTube description of this video:

The Blessing UK — At this unique and challenging time in the United Kingdom over 65 churches and movements, representing hundreds of others, have come together online to sing a blessing over our land. Standing together as one, our desire is that this song will fill you with hope and encourage you. But the church is not simply singing a blessing, each day we’re looking to practically be a blessing. Many of the churches included in this song have assisted with supplying over 400,000 meals to the most vulnerable and isolated in our nation since COVID-19 lockdown began. This alongside phone calls to the isolated, pharmacy delivery drops and hot meals to the NHS frontline hospital staff. Our buildings may be closed but the church is very much alive!
