I know I'm about an hour and 34 minutes late for an actual New Years Eve post... I mean, the clocks already struck 12, its already 2013, and Mark and I just got home from spending the evening at my parents with my family to ring in the New Year.
But before I write a New Year 2013 post and start making my resolutions and goals for this year I just want to premise it with this prayer. This worship song that we sang in church this past Sunday... I've sung it many times, it's not a new song. But as I sang it yesterday (or technically two yesterdays ago...) I felt moved to claim this as my prayer for this year. To lay this as my foundation for whatever hopes and dreams and goals I want to accomplish in 2013...
That no matter what takes place, I will bless HIS name.
Blessed Be Your Name
In the land that is plentiful
Where Your streams of abundance flow
Blessed be Your name
Blessed Be Your name
When I'm found in the desert place
Though I walk through the wilderness
Blessed Be Your name
Every blessing You pour out
I'll turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
Still I will say
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious name
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
Blessed be Your name
On the road marked with suffering
Though there's pain in the offering
Blessed be Your name
Every blessing You pour out
I'll turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
Still I will say
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious name
You give and take away
You give and take away
My heart will choose to say
Lord, blessed be Your name
