Bless the Lord O my soul, O my soul

 Worship His holy name

 Sing like never before

 O my soul I’ll worship Your holy name

 Verse 1: 

The sun comes up it’s a new day dawning 

It’s time to sing Your song again

 Whatever may pass and whatever lies before me

 Let me be singing when the evening comes

 Verse 2:

 You’re rich in love and You’re slow to anger

 Your name is great and Your heart is kind

 For all Your goodness I will keep on singing 

Ten thousand reasons for my heart to find 

Verse 3: 

And on that day when my strength is failing 

The end draws near and my time has come

 Still my soul will sing Your praise unending

 Ten thousand years and then forevermore

 Ending: 

Worship Your holy name

 Lord I’ll worship Your holy name

 Sing like never before O my soul

 I’ll worship Your holy name 

Worship Your holy name 

Worship Your holy name
