Blessed
1. If I say I want God's best
am I seeking to be blessed,
2. What I seek is what I
find, to my will I want to bind
3. What are all the treasures
worth, All the pleasures of this earth
1. Or surrendering myself to
Him alone?
2. The will of the Sovereign
Lord.
3. They are nothing before
God's eternal throne.
1. If it's gifts and gold I
seek, then my faith will remain weak
2. and the treasures I pursue
are not alive nor true
3. wood, hay and stubble
burn, but I am blessed to learn
1. For I put my faith in what
I cannot own.
2. But to let them go, I
think I can't afford.
3. Of the blessedness Christ
came to make known.
Chorus:
To bless the Lord, this is my
goal Let this be my soul's
sole aim.
So bless the Lord, oh my soul, Oh bless His Holy Name.
