Blessed Be the Name of the Lord
by Hyles-Anderson College

Album: Forever King

As the sun rose that morning on the day of Job's trial,
He rose up to serve God as any other day
Bound and determined to live in God's favor
And nothing would stand in his way

Then the messengers came one by one with their stories
In just a few moments Job lost all he had
Great wealth and riches, the health of his body
And even his children were dead

The Lord giveth he taketh away
Blessed be the name of the Lord
I've served him before, and I'll serve him today
Blessed be the name of the Lord

Job's wife came before him to voice her opinion
She said, "You should end it, just curse God and die."
Job rose from the ashes, he looked toward the heaven
He brushed back the tears in his eyes

The Lord giveth he taketh away
Blessed be the name of the Lord
I've served him before, and I'll serve him today
Blessed be the name of the Lord

When trouble comes silently
Blessed be the name
When the storm winds blow violently
Blessed be the name

When Satan comes oppressing me
Blessed be the name
I'll still serve God faithfully
Blessed be the name .....,,,

The Lord giveth he taketh away
Blessed be the name of the Lord
I've served him before, and I'll serve him today
Blessed be the name
Blessed be the name
Blessed be the name
Of the Lord…………
The Lord
