So often the battle can be in our minds. When faced with heartbreaking circumstances with my son or because of my MS, I have to fight thoughts of fear. When hopelessness begins to creep in tempting me to have a pity party, I have to keep my mind stayed on Him. The song ‘Blessed Be Your Name’ is one that expresses how I choose to bless the name of Jesus. Here are some of the lyrics:
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
