Blessed Be The Name (Canaan Melodies #9)

My CrossRoad band mates helped me rock up this old hymn a bit. What a great song of praise that we can still sing with joy in our churches today.

More info on the song here.

1 All praise to Him who reigns above
In majesty supreme,
Who gave His Son for man to die,
That He might man redeem!

2 His name above all names shall stand,
Exalted more and more,
At God the Father’s own right hand,
Where angel hosts adore.

Refrain:
Blessèd be the name, blessèd be the name,
Blessèd be the name of the Lord;
Blessèd be the name, blessèd be the name,
Blessèd be the name of the Lord!

3 Redeemer, Savior, Friend of man
Once ruined by the fall,
You have devised salvation’s plan,
For You have died for all. (Refrain)

4 His name shall be the Counselor,
The mighty Prince of Peace,
Of all earth’s kingdoms Conqueror
Whose reign shall never cease. (Refrain)
