A song that became my prayer

This song touches me so deeply, first because I know my heart hasn't reflected praise at all times during or after my losses (specially the first one) and second because I truly want praise to be my first response no matter what the circumstance in my life is.

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

You give and take away
You give and take away
My heart will choose to say
Lord, blessed be Your name
 
May this be a prayer that flows from your heart no matter the circumstances you are going through. 
 
REMEMBER WHAT JESUS SAID: "In the world you'll have trouble. But cheer up! I have overcome the world." Thank you Jesus!

  1. Hi Paulina,

    Just wanted to share something with you, don't know if you know this, but the writer of this song wrote it after his wife lost a baby. So a very special song here x
