Bless the Lord

Read It, Learn It, Live It, Share It

“Bless the Lord, oh my soul. . . ” – 10,000 Reasons, Matt Redman

This morning, I am sharing the lyrics of a song that has found a special place in my heart as I think of the incredible blessings that have been granted to me and my family.  Just for a few moments, reflect on the goodness the mercy, the grace and the love that has been shared in your family.  It’s so easy to seek out the shortcomings and take the blessings for granted. Today I’m telling you that you have permission to dwell on the positive in your life.

Bless the Lord, oh my soul, ohhh my soul
Worship His holy name.
Sing like never before, ohhh my soul
Worship Your holy name.

The sun comes up, It’s a new day dawning
Time to sing His song again
Whatever may pass, and whatever lies before me
Let me be singing when the evening comes.

Bless the Lord, oh my soul, ohhh my soul
Worship His holy name.
Sing like never before, ohhh my soul
Worship Your holy name.

You’re rich in love and you’re slow to anger
Your name is great and your heart is kind
For all your goodness I will keep on singing
10,000 reasons for my heart to find

Bless the Lord, oh my soul, ohhh my soul
Worship His holy name.
Sing like never before, ohhh my soul
Worship Your holy name.

And on that day, when my strength is fading
The end draws near and my time has come
Still my soul will sing your praise unending
10,000 years and then forever more

Bless the Lord, oh my soul, ohhh my soul
Worship His holy name.
Sing like never before, ohhh my soul
Worship Your holy name.
