Standing on the stairs were the [spiritual leaders] who called with loud voices to the LORD their God. 5 … “Stand up and praise the LORD your God, who is from everlasting to everlasting.”
“Blessed be your glorious name, and may it be exalted above all blessing and praise. 6 You alone are the LORD. You made the heavens, even the highest heavens, and all their starry host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them. You give life to everything, and the multitudes of heaven worship you. Nehemiah 9:4-6 NIV (adapted)
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 the sun’s shining down on me
When the world’s all as it should be: blessed be Your name
Though I walk through the wilderness: 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
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
You give and take away, You give and take away
My heart will choose to say, Lord blessed be Your name
