Blessed be Your Name

Written by Beth Redman & Matt Redman

Album: Where Angles Tread to Fear

Tuning: E A D G B E (normal)

Update, 14/08/07: If some of you find the Abm7-chord, when played "464444", not to sound 
try playing it "XX1102". It's still the same chord, but some of you may find that the 
version of the chord sounds better than the original one. - Siberge

Verse 1)
B          F#                 Abm7          E
 Blessed be Your name in the land that is plentiful
           B           F#
Where Your streams of abundance flow
E
Blessed be Your name
B              F#                   Abm7         E
 And blessed be Your name when I'm found in the desert place
         B                F#
Though I walk through the wilderness
       E
Blessed be Your name


Prechorus)
B               F#
 Every blessing You pour out I'll
Abm7         E
 turn back to praise
B                     F#
 And when the darkness closes in, Lord
Abm7          E
 Still I will say


Chorus)

     E
 Blessed be Your name when the sun's shining down on me
B               F#
When the world's "all as it should be"
E
Blessed be Your name

 And blessed be Your name on the road marked with suffering
B                                         F#
Though there's pain in the offering
E
Blessed be Your name

 Every blessing You pour out I'll
Abm7         E

 And when the darkness closes in, Lord
Abm7          E
 Still I will say

You give and take away

You give and take away

My heart will choose to say

Lord, blessed be Your name     (x3)
