1 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. / Ev'ry blessing you pour out I'll turn back to praise. / When the darkness closes in, Lord, still I will say:
Refrain: Blessed be the name of the Lord, blessed be your name. / Blessed be the name of the Lord, blessed be your glorious name.
2 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. / Ev'ry blessing you pour out I'll turn back to praise. / When the darkness closes in, Lord, still I will say: Refrain
Brigde: /: You give and take away, / you give and take away. / My heart will choose to say, / Lord, blessed be your name. :/ Refrain

My Jesus, my Saviour, Lord, there is none like you; / all of my days, I want to praise the wonders of your mighty love. / My comfort, my shelter, tower of refuge and strength, / let every breath, all that I am, never cease to worship you. Shout to the Lord all the earth, let us sing, / power and majesty, praise to the King. / Mountains bow down and the seas will roar / at the sound of your name. / I sing for joy at the work of your hands, / forever I'll love you, forever I'll stand. / Nothing compares to the promise I have in you.
