126. O Blessed be the Name

1 My joyful heart is filled with praise divine,
Blessed be the name of the Lord;
For I am His and He is ever mine,
Blessed be the name of the Lord;
For me the weight of sin He bore,
O blessed be the name of the Lord;
He saves me now and saves me evermore,
Blessed be the name of the Lord.

2 For every gift His loving hand bestows,
Blessed be the name of the Lord;
For peace that like a gentle river flows,
Blessed be the name of the Lord;
For grace that keeps me hour by hour,
O blessed be the name of the Lord;
For vict’ry o’er the cruel tempter’s pow’r,
Blessed be the name of the Lord.

3 ‘Tis He that makes the path before me bright,
Blessed be the name of the Lord;
No cloud can veil His glory from my sight,
Blessed be the name of the Lord;
O wondrous love that ransomed me,
O blessed be the name of the Lord;
I’ll sing His praise thro’ all eternity,
Blessed be the name of the Lord.
