Album: Where Angles Tread to Fear
Tuning: E A D G B E (normal)
Update, 14/08/07: If some of you find the Abm7-chord, when played "464444", not to sound
try playing it "XX1102". It's still the same chord, but some of you may find that the
version of the chord sounds better than the original one. - Siberge
Verse 1)
Blessed be Your name in the land that is plentiful
Where Your streams of abundance flow
Blessed be Your name
And blessed be Your name when I'm found in the desert place
Though I walk through the wilderness
Blessed be Your name
Prechorus)
Every blessing You pour out I'll
turn back to praise
And when the darkness closes in, Lord
Still I will say
Chorus)
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious name
Verse 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
And blessed be Your name on the road marked with suffering
Though there's pain in the offering
Blessed be Your name
Prechorus)
Every blessing You pour out I'll
turn back to praise
And when the darkness closes in, Lord
Still I will say
Chorus)
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious name (x2)
Interlude)
You give and take away
You give and take away
My heart will choose to say
Lord, blessed be Your name (x3)
Chorus)
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious name (x2)
