wotc
Once you have the city's blessing, you have it for the rest of the game, even if you lose control of some or all of your permanents. The city's blessing isn't a permanent itself and can't be removed by any effect.
wotc
A permanent is any object on the battlefield, including tokens and lands. Spells and emblems aren't permanents.
