It lifts my soul

 

The past few weeks the song Blessed Be Your Name has just lifted me so much. It has calmed my heart and soothed my soul. The words have taught me a lesson and have become my own special reminder that God is in control. I've always loved this song but it has taken on a whole new meaning with me and I wanted to share the lyrics with you.

Blessed Be Your Name




-Matt Redman

Blessed Be Your Name
In the land that is plentiful
Where Your streams of abundance flow
Blessed be Your name

Blessed Be Your name
When I'm found in the desert place
Though I walk through the wilderness
Blessed Be Your name

Every blessing You pour out
I'll turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
Still I will say

Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious name

Blessed be Your name
When the sun's shining down on me
When the world's 'all as it should be'
Blessed be Your name

Blessed be Your name
On the road marked with suffering
Though there's pain in the offering
Blessed be Your name

Every blessing You pour out
I'll turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
Still I will say

Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious name

You give and take away
You give and take away
My heart will choose to say
Lord, blessed be Your name








Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious name

I hope that the words lifted your heart and soul as well. Do you have a song that means the same to you? That calms you or brings you peace? Share it with me! 


P.S. I bought more green beans today!
