More than 100 virtual choirs from nations and cities around the world have produced a phenomenon known as “The Blessing.” In addition, the Covid-19 pandemic has produced a faith response in two similar productions — “50 Countries Affected by Covid-19 Sing Amazing Grace” and “The Irish Blessing.”

The Citizen will post these multi-national and multi-lingual versions on a regular basis, many of them 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.
