Bless The Lord
Laura Story's song 'Bless the Lord' is a worship ballad about trusting God's sovereignty through seasons of loss and refinement. The lyrics acknowledge that God gives and takes away for our good, even when we don't understand. The singer learns to let go and rely on God, who walks with her through hardship. The chorus calls the soul to bless the Lord and remember His power, glory, and healing. The song echoes themes from Job and Psalm 103, emphasizing surrender, faith, and gratitude for God's mercy and redemption.
You give and take away for my good
For who am I to say what I need?
For You alone 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:
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 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:
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, my strength may fail
I pray for eyes to see the richness of Your mercy shown to me!
Bless the Lord, bless the Lord...
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, bless the Lord
Oh my soul, oh my soul
Bless the Lord, bless the Lord
