Lyrics Speak to Me

A couple months ago, I bought a CD by Laura Story because I absolutely love the song "Mighty to Save" on it. Although I bought the CD specifically for that one song, I discovered the first song on the CD speaks to my heart at the present time. It's a great reminder for me of God's sovereignty in my life. His plans and purposes are so much higher than mine. Although I don't understand them presently, I must continue to praise Him for who He is, what He's done for me and what He will do in the future.

"Bless the Lord" by Laura Story

You give and take away
for my good
For who am I to say
what I need
For You alone can see
the hidden parts of me
that need to be stripped away

And as You begin
to refine
I'm learning to let go
and rely
on One who walks with me
as hard as it maybe
You're teaching me
all the while to say

CHORUS
Bless the Lord
Oh my soul
all that's in me
bless Your name
Forget not Your power untold
not Your glory
or Your fame
For You came to heal the broken
to redeem
and make me whole
Bless the Lord
Oh my soul

Lord you give and take away
for my good
For who am I to say
what I need
For You alone can see
the hidden parts of me
that need to be stripped away
And as You begin to refine
I'm learning to let go
and rely
on One who walks with me
as hard as it may be
You're teaching me all the while to say

CHORUS
Bless the Lord
Oh my soul
all that's in me
bless Your name
Forget not Your power untold
not Your glory
or Your fame
For you came to heal the broken
to redeem
and make me whole
Bless the Lord
Oh my soul

Though my faith may falter
and my strength may fail
I pray for eyes to see
the richness of Your mercy
shown to me

Bless the Lord
Bless the Lord

CHORUS
Bless the Lord
Oh my soul
all that's in me
bless Your name
Forget not Your power untold
not Your glory
or Your fame
For you came to heal the broken
to redeem
and make me whole
Bless the Lord
Oh my soul
