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!
Such a beautiful song! “Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” (I Thessalonians 5:18) Whatever is going in our lives, in the midst of tragedy, Job’s response is one of WORSHIP. He understands that when God gives and when God takes away, our only right response is praise! “Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked I will depart. The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away; May the name of the Lord be praised.” Job 1:20-21(NIV)
